Infinite chains connected by N-H...N hydrogen bonding form the primary packing motif in two closely related 4-nitroimidazole derivatives, viz. 5-bromo-2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole, C(4)H(4)BrN(3)O(2), (I), and 2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole-5-carbonitrile, C(5)H(4)N(4)O(2), (II). These chains are almost identical, even though in (II) there are two symmetry-independent molecules in the asymmetri...

Since C^C* cyclometalated Pt(II) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have been identified as potential emitter materials in organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs), very promising results regarding quantum yields, colour and stability have been presented. Herein, we report on four nitrile substituted complexes with a chelating NHC ligand (1-(4-cyanophenyl)-3-isopropyl-1H-benzo[d]...

High-resolution crystal structure determination and spherical and multipolar refinement enabled an organic solid solution of 1-(4'-chlorophenyl)-2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole-5-carbonitrile and 5-bromo-1-(4'-chlorophenyl)-2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole to be found, which would not normally be revealed using only standard resolution data (ca 0.8 Å), as the disordered part is only visible at high ...

The reaction of adamantane-1-carbohydrazide (1) with heterocyclic aldehydes, namely 5-(4-chlorophenyl)isoxazole-3-carboxaldehyde (2a), 5-(4-methylphenyl)isoxazole-3-carboxaldehyde (2b), 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)isoxazole-3-carboxaldehyde (2c), 1H-imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde and 2-butyl-4-chloro-1H-imidazole-5-carboxaldehyde, in ethanol, yielded the corresponding N'-heteroarylidene-1-adamantylcarbohydr...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(C(3)H(4)N(2))(6)]SO(4)·2C(3)H(4)N(2), contains two complex cations, two sulfate anions and four imidazole mol-ecules. In both cations, the Fe(II) atom is coordinated by six monodentate imidazole ligands and exhibits a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry. The Fe-N distances [2.184 (4)-2.218 (4) Å] point to a high-spin state of the F...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, {[Zn(C₁₆H₁₆O₄Si)(C₁₂H₁₀N₄)]·H(2)O}(n), consists of one Zn(II) ion, two half 3,3'-(dimethyl-silanedi-yl)dibenzoate ligands and two half 1,1'-(1,4-phenyl-ene)di-1H-imidazole ligands. The Zn(II) ion is four-coordinated by two O atoms from two carboxlate ligands, two N atoms from two imidazole ligands. Two Zn(II) ions are bridged by two carboxyl-ate groups...

The mononuclear title compound, [ZnCl2(C15H12N2)2], was synthesized by reaction of zinc chloride and 1-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-imidazole (bpi) under hydro-thermal conditions. The Zn(II) atom is tetra-hedrally coordinated by the free imidazole N atoms of two bpi ligands and by two Cl atoms. The bpi ligands are not planar, with dihedral angles of 37.52 (14) and 42.45 (14)° between the phenyl rings and...

The aim of the study was to assess the impact of modulating factors on vascular smooth muscle cells reactivity. Vascular resistance was induced by the administration of increasing concentrations of imidazole. The experiments were performed on isolated and perfused tail artery of Wistar rats (weight 250 g - 350 g). Rats were been narcotized by urethane (intraperitoneal injection) at a dose of 12...

In the title molecule, C(6)H(6)N(4)S(2), a twofold rotation axis passes through the mid-point of the S-S bond. The C-S-S-C torsion angle is 83.62 (17)°. π-π stacking between imidazole rings of adjacent mol-ecules is observed in the crystal structure, the centroid-centroid distance being 3.447 (2) Å. Inter-molecular N-H⋯S hydrogen bonding results in the formation of a linear chain in the c-axis ...
