The crystal and molecular structure and physicochemical properties of 2-N-methylamino-3-methylpyridine N-oxide (MA3MPO) have been studied. MA3MPO was synthesized from 2-amino-3-methylpyridine by ...several steps to form colorless crystals suitable for crystallographic analysis. The data reveal that MA3MPO crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n. The studied compound contains a nearly flat triply substituted pyridine skeleton whose structure is stabilized by an intramolecular N–H⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bond. The N-oxide molecules are connected together by weak C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds, an acceptor of which is the oxygen atom from the N-oxide group. This leads to creation of two-dimensional network of hydrogen bonds. Its IR, Raman, UV–Vis and luminescence spectra have been measured and analyzed on the basis of DFT and NBO quantum chemical calculations in which the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) approach was applied. The distribution of the electron levels in the studied compound has been analyzed in terms of the possibility of its participation in the ligand-to-lanthanide ion energy transfer.

A conformation of the linking hydrazo-bridge CNHNHC is bend and the dihedral angle between the planes of the phenyl and pyridine rings is 88.2(5)°. The hydrogen bonding of the type NH···N and possibly also CH···O favors a dimer formation in the crystal structure. The dimers are further linked by a NH···O hydrogen bond, so forming a layer parallel to the ab plane.

A new organic–organic salt, 2-amino-4-methyl-3-nitropyridinium hydrogen oxalate (AMNPO), and its deuterium analogue have been synthesized and characterized by means of FT-IR, FT-Raman, DSC and single crystal X-ray studies. The DSC measurements and temperature dependence of the IR and Raman spectra in the range 4–295K show that it undergoes a reversible phase transition at ∼240K. At room temperature it crystallizes in noncentrosymmetric space group P21. The unit-cell is built of the 2-amino-4-methyl-3-nitropyridinium cations and oxalate monoanions which are connected via the NH⋯O and OH⋯O hydrogen bonds. The geometrical and hydrogen bond parameters are similar for non-deuterated (at 120 and 293K) and deuterated compounds (at 90K). The phase transition is probably a consequence of order–disorder transition inside of hydrogen network. The 6-311G(2d,2p) basis set with B3LYP functional have been used to discuss the structure and vibrational spectra of the studied compound.

Two new organic–organic salts, 2-amino-4-methyl-5-nitropyridinium trifluoroacetate monohydrate (AMNP-TFA), and 2-amino-4-methyl-5-nitropyridinium 4-hydroxybenzenesulfonate (AMNP-HBS), were obtained and characterized by means of FT-IR, FT-Raman and single crystal X-ray crystallography. In the former crystal, the cations, anions and water molecules are linked into layers by three types of hydrogen bonds, NPH⋯O, NAH⋯O and OH⋯O. These layers are connected by weaker CH⋯O hydrogen bonds. In the latter crystal, the cations and anions form one-dimensional structure through a number of hydrogen-bonding interactions involving the OH, NH+ and NH2 groups as donors. In this case the NPH⋯O and NAH⋯O hydrogen bonds are formed. The combination of interactions between cations and anions results in the formation of columns. Additionally, there are π–π stacking interactions between the columns. The obtained X-ray structural data are related to the vibrational spectra of the studied crystals.
Solid state NMR spectroscopy and gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) theoretical calculations were employed to establish structural restraints (ionization, hydrogen bonding, spatial arrangement) ...for O-phosphorylated l-threonine derivatives in different ionization states and hydrogen bonding strengths. These structural restraints are invaluable in molecular modeling and docking procedures for biological species containing phosphoryl groups. Both the experimental and the GIAO approach show that 31P delta ii chemical shift tensor parameters are very sensitive to the ionization state. The negative values found for the skew kappa are typical for -2 phosphates. The distinct span Omega values reflect the change of strength of hydrogen bonding. For species in the -1 ionization state, engaged in very strong hydrogen bonds, Omega is smaller than for a phosphate group involved in weak hydrogen bonding. For phosphates in the -2 ionization state, Omega is significantly smaller compared to -1 species, although the kappa for -1 samples never reaches negative values. For -1 phosphate residues, in the case when 1H one pulse and/or combined rotation and multiple pulse spectroscopy (CRAMPS) sequences fail and assignment of proton chemical shift is ambiguous, a combination of 1H-(13)C and 1H-(31)P 2D heteronuclear correlation (HETCOR) correlations is found to be an excellent tool for the elucidation of 1H isotropic chemical shifts. In addition, a 2D strategy using 1H-(1)H double quantum filter (DQF) correlations a back-to-back (BABA) sequence in this work is useful for analyzing the topology of hydrogen bonding. In the case of a multicenter phosphorus domain, 2D 31P-(31)P proton driven spin diffusion experiments give information about the spatial arrangement of the phosphate residues.
