Abstract:
The mol-ecular and crystal structures of a benzoyl-hydrazine bearing an ether group, 4-[(4-methyl-benz-yl)-oxy]benzohydrazide, C15H16N2O2, (I), and of the corresponding N'-[(thio-phen-2-yl)-methyl-idene]- derivative, 4-[(4-methyl-benz-yl)-oxy]-N'-[(thio-phen-2-yl)-methyl-idene]benzohydrazide, C20H18N2O2S, (II), are described. The supra-molecular structures of both compounds are governed by N-H⋯N and N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions. The hydrazine compound (I) shows a crystal packing with a more complex hydrogen-bonding scheme because of the NH-NH2 entity, forming a di-periodic supra-molecular structure extending parallel to (100). Hydrazone mol-ecules in (II) are hydrogen-bonded through N-H⋯O inter-actions, giving rise to the formation of ribbons parallel to [010]. Mol-ecules of (I) and (II) show a different orientation of the carbohydrazide moiety likely to favor the crystal packing and thus hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.

Structures 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...

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
