(2SR,4aSR,8aSR)-6-Oxoperhydro­naphthalene-2-carboxylic acid

In the title racemic compound, C11H16O3, the mol­ecule adopts a conformation that places its carboxyl group in an equatorial position. Mol­ecules aggregate by hydrogen-bond pairing of carboxyl groups, yielding centrosymmetric dimers that are arranged into layers in the (020) planes

4-(2-Benzoyl­ethyl)benzoic acid

The title compound, C16H14O3, adopts a conformation in which each functional group is almost coplanar with its adjacent ring, while the two aromatic rings are twisted with respect to one another with a dihedral angle of 78.51 (3)°. The compound dimerizes by standard centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded carboxyl pairing [O⋯O = 2.6218 (11) Å and O—H⋯O = 176 (2)°]. The packing includes two inter­molecular C—H⋯O close contacts with the ketone group

(-)-Isosantonic acid: Alteration of the hydrogen-bonding mode by configurational inversion at a single centre in a γ,ε- diketocarboxylic acid

The title diketo acid, (1R,3aS,6aS,7R,9S)-(-)-α,3a,7-trimethyl-5,8- dioxo-1,4-ethanoperhydropentalene-1-acetic acid (C15H 20O4), is shown to aggregate in the crystal structure as acid-to-ketone hydrogen-bonding catemers, whose chains follow 21 screw axes from each carboxyl to a ketone in a neighbouring molecule [O⋯O = 2.7472(13) and O⋯H - O = 172.7(17)°]. Two parallel counterdirectional screw-related single-strand hydrogen-bonding chains pass through the cell in the a direction. Six intermolecular C - H⋯O=C close contacts are found. Comparisons are drawn with a diastereomer having the opposite configuration at the methylated chiral centre adjacent to the carboxyl group.Fil: Zinczuk, Juan.

3-Acetyl­benzoic acid

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C9H8O3, essentially planar mol­ecules [the carboxyl group makes a dihedral angle of 4.53 (7)° with the plane of the ring, while the acid group forms a dihedral angle of 3.45 (8)° to the ring] aggregate by centrosymmetric hydrogen-bond pairing of ordered carboxyl groups. This yields dimers which have two orientations in a unit cell, creating a herringbone pattern. In addition, two close C—H⋯O inter­molecular contacts exist: one is between a methyl H atom and the ketone of a symmetry-related mol­ecule and the other involves a benzene H atom and the carboxyl group O atom of another mol­ecule. The crystal studied was a non-merohedral twin with twin law [100, 00, 0] and a domain ratio of 0.8104(14): 0.1896(14)

Chlorido[2-({[2-(diphenyl­phosphan­yl)­benzyl­idene]amino}­meth­yl)thio­phene-κ2 N,P]methyl­palladium(II)

In the title compound, [Pd(CH3)Cl(C24H20NPS)], the PdII ion is coordinated in a distorted square-planar environment which includes the P and N atoms of the bis-chelating ligand. The thio­phene ring is rotationally ordered, unlike in the majority of crystal structures containing this group

(±)-trans-3-Oxo-1,2,3,4,4a,9,10,10a-octa­hydro­phenanthrene-10a-carboxylic acid: catemeric hydrogen bonding in a δ-keto acid

The title compound, C15H16O3, aggregates as hydrogen-bonded catemers progressing from each carboxyl to the ketone of a screw-related neighbor [O⋯O = 2.6675 (14) Å and O—H⋯O = 170°]. Two parallel centrosymmetrically related single-strand hydrogen-bonding helices proceed through the cell in the b-axis direction. The packing includes three inter­molecular C—H⋯O=C close contacts, involving both the ketone and the carboxyl group. The structure is isomorphous with that of the previously described Δ4 α,β-unsaturated ketone

The hydro­chloride salt of l-ecgonine, a congener of cocaine

The title compound, (1R,2R,3S,5S,8S)-3-hydr­oxy-8-methyl-8-azoniabicyclo­[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylic acid chloride, C9H16NO3 +·Cl−, is both a metabolite and a precursor of the tropane alkaloid l-cocaine. The carboxyl group is not involved in dimerization, but instead donates a hydrogen bond to the chloride counter-ion, which participates in two additional hydrogen bonds. The chloride ion is thus trigonally hydrogen bonded to three l-ecgonine cations. The quarternary N proton is intra­molecularly hydrogen bonded to the carboxyl C=O group, an arrangement identical to that reported for both (−)-nor­cocaine and the tetrachloroaurate(III) salt of l-cocaine. One close inter­molecular C—H⋯O contact exists

(2RS,8aRS)-6-Oxo-1,2,3,4,6,7,8,8a-octa­hydro­naphthalene-2-carboxylic acid

The title racemate, C11H14O3, aggregates in the crystal structure as acid-to-ketone O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding catemers whose components are glide-related. The relative stereochemistry at the carboxyl group arises spontaneously during the synthesis. Two inter­molecular C—H⋯O=C close contacts were found, both involving the acid group

4-Oxocyclo­hexa­neacetic acid: catemeric hydrogen bonding and spontaneous resolution of a single conformational enanti­omer in an achiral ∊-keto acid

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C8H12O3, consists of a single conformational enanti­omer, which aggregates in the catemeric acid-to-ketone hydrogen-bonding mode [O⋯O = 2.682 (4) Å and O—H⋯O = 172 (6)°]. Four hydrogen-bonding chains of translationally related mol­ecules pass through the cell orthogonal to the 43 screw axis along c, alternating in the 110 and the 10 direction, with alignment with respect to this axis of + + − −. Successive chains are rotated by 90° around the c axis. One C—H⋯O=C close contact, involving the carboxyl group, exists
