2-Amino-3-chloro-5-nitro­benzamide

The amide group in the title compound, C7H6ClN3O3, is significantly twisted out of the plane of the benzene ring [C—C—C—O = 34.2 (5)°] whereas the nitro group is almost co-planar [O—N—C—C = 4.0 (5)°] with the ring. Intra­molecular N—H⋯O and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds occur. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating layers propagating in the ab plane

A kryptoracemic salt: 2-{[2,8-bis(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-4yl](hydroxy)methyl}piperidin-1-ium (+)-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-methoxy-2-phenylpropanoate

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, C17H17F6N2O+·C10H8F3O3-, comprises two piperidin-1-ium cations and two carboxyl­ate anions. The cations, each having an L-shaped conformation owing to the near orthogonal relationship between the quinolinyl and piperidin-1-ium residues, are pseudo-enanti­omeric. The anions have the same absolute configuration but differ in the relative orientations of the carboxyl­ate, meth­oxy and benzene groups. Arguably, the most prominent difference between the anions occurs about the Cq-Om bond as seen in the Cc-Cq-Om-Cm torsion angles of -176.1 (3) and -67.1 (4)°, respectively (q = quaternary, m = meth­oxy and c = carboxyl­ate). The presence of Oh-H...Oc and Np-H...Oc hydrogen bonds leads to the formation of a supra­molecular chain along the a axis (h = hy­droxy and p = piperidin-1-ium); weak intra­molecular Np-H...Oh hydrogen bonds are also noted. Chains are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by C-H...F inter­actions. Based on a literature survey, related mol­ecules/cations adopt a uniform conformation in the solid state based on the letter L

1-(4-Methyl­phen­yl)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl 4-nitro­benzene­sulfonate

In the title mol­ecule, C22H17N3O5S, the pyrazole ring is planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.018 Å) and forms dihedral angles of 21.45 (10) and 6.96 (10)° with the N- and C-bound benzene rings, respectively. Supra­molecular layers in the bc plane are formed in the crystal via C—H⋯O and π–π inter­actions involving the sulfonamide benzene ring inter­acting with the N- and C-bound benzene rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.790 (2) and 3.730 (2) Å, respectively]. The crystal studied was found to be a merohedral twin (twin law 1 0 0.678, 0 -1 0, 0 0 -1), the fractional contribution of the minor component being approximately 36%
