Abstract:
The title compound, 2C12H10N6·C3H7NO, crystallizes as a racemate in the monoclinic P21/c space group with two independent mol-ecules (I and II) and one di-methyl-formamide solvent mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. Both mol-ecules (I and II) have chiral centers at the carbon atoms where the triazine rings of mol-ecules I and II are attached to the phenyl ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules I and II are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds through the solvent di-methyl-formamide mol-ecule into layers parallel to (001). In addition, C-H⋯π inter-actions also connect adjacent mol-ecules into layers parallel to (001). The stability of the mol-ecular packing is ensured by van der Waals inter-actions between the layers. The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that N⋯H/H⋯N (38.3% for I; 35.0% for II), H⋯H (28.2% for I; 27.0% for II) and C⋯H/H⋯C (23.4% for I; 26.3% for II) inter-actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing.

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
02:46Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
01:28Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the...
