The unanticipated oxidation of a tertiary amine in a tetracyclic glyoxal-cyclam condensate yielding zinc(II) coordinated to a sterically hindered amine oxide
The complex, trichlorido(1,4,11-triaza-8-azoniatetracyclo[6.6.2.04,16.011,15]hexadecane 1-oxide- κ O)zinc(II) monohydrate, [ZnCl3(C12H23N4O)] · H2O, (I), has monoclinic symmetry (space group P21/n) at 120   K. The zinc(II) center adopts a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry and is coordinated by three chlorine atoms and the oxygen atom of the oxidized tertiary amine of the tetracycle. The amine nitrogen atom, inside the ligand cleft, is protonated and forms a hydrogen bond to the oxygen of the amine oxide. Additional hydrogen-bonding interactions involve the protonated amine, the water solvate oxygen a...

Crystal structure of 1-{4-[bis(4-methylphenyl)amino]phenyl}ethene-1,2,2-tricarbonitrile
The title compound, C25H18N4, crystallizes in the centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Pbca, with eight molecules in the unit cell. The main feature noticeable in the structure is the impact of the tricyanovinyl (TCV) group in forcing partial planarity of the portion of the molecule carrying the TCV group and directing the molecular packing in the solid state, resulting in the formation of π -stacks of dimers within the unit cell. Short π – π stack closest atom-to-atom distances of 3.444   (15)   Å are observed. Such motif patterns are favorable as they are thought to be conducive for better charge transport ...

‘ Young crystallographers ’ rejuvenate crystallography in Germany
Since its founding in 2013, the Young Crystallographers (YC) have become one of the most active working groups not only within their parent organization, the German Crystallographic Society (DGK), but also among other young crystallographers' groups in Europe and the world. The aim of the YC is and always has been to support early-career researchers in the diverse fields of crystallography and the rejuvenation of the field on a national scale. Over the past decade, we have curated events, platforms, and educational content tailored to foster collaboration and knowledge transfer among young crystallographers. In this articl...

In the title compound, C21H15N5OS2, molecular pairs are linked by N — H...N hydrogen bonds along the c-axis direction and C — H...S and C — H...O hydrogen bonds along the b-axis direction, with R22(12) and R22(16) motifs, respectively, thus forming layers parallel to the (10\overline{4}) plane. In addition, C=S... π and C[triple-bond]N... π interactions between the layers ensure crystal cohesion.
