Co-crystallization of N ′ -benzylidenepyridine-4-carbohydrazide and benzoic acid via autoxidation of benzaldehyde
The 1:1 co-crystal N ′ -[(2-methylphenyl)methylidene]pyridine-4-carbohydrazide – benzoic acid (1/1), C13H11N3O · C7H6O2, formed unexpectedly after autoxidation of benzaldehyde during the slow evaporation process of a solution of isoniazid in benzaldehyde. The original intent of the synthesis was to modify isoniazid with benzaldehyde and crystallize the product in order to improve efficacy against Mycobacteria species, but benzoic acid formed spontaneously and co-crystallized with the intended product, N ′ -benzylidenepyridine-4-carbohydrazide.

The synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopic analysis of (E)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)prop-2-en-1-one
The synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopic analysis of (E)-1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (C17H13ClO3), a substituted chalcone, are described. The overall geometry of the molecule is largely planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.1742   Å ), but slightly kinked, leading to a dihedral angle between the planes of the benzene rings at either side of the molecule of 8.31   (9) ° . In the crystal, only weak interactions determine the packing motifs. These include C — H...O and C — H...Cl hydrogen bonds and π – π overlap of aromatic rings.

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of tert-butyl 4-[4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-2,7,7-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydroquinoline-3-carboxylate
The 1,4-dihydropyridine ring of the title compound, C24H29F2NO4, adopts a distorted boat conformation, while the cyclohexene ring is in an almost twist-boat conformation. In the crystal, N — H...O and C — H...O hydrogen bonds as well as C — H... π interactions connect molecules, forming layers parallel to the (100) plane. These layers are linked by van der Waals forces and C — H...F interactions, which consolidate the crystal structure.
