In the crystal of the title co-crystalline adduct, C8H16N4·C8H9ClO, (I), prepared by solid-state reaction, the molecules are linked by intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming a D motif. The azaadamantane structure in (I) is slightly distorted, with N—CH2—CH2—N torsion angles of 10.4 (3) and −9.0 (3)°. These values differ slightly from the corresponding torsion angles in the free aminal cage (0.0°) and in related co-crystalline adducts, which are not far from a planar geometry and consistent with a D2d molecular symmetry in the tetraazatricyclo structure. The structures also differ in that there is a slight elongation of the N—C bond lengths about the N atom that accepts the hydrogen bond in (I) compared with the other N—C bond lengths. In the crystal, the two molecules are not only linked by a classical O—H⋯N hydrogen bond but are further connected by weak C—H⋯π interactions, forming a two-dimensional supramolecular network parallel to the bc plane.
The structure of the 1:2 co-crystalline adduct C8H16N4·2C6H5BrO, (I), from the solid-state reaction of 1,3,6,8-tetraazatricyclo[4.4.1.13,8]dodecane (TATD) and 4-bromophenol, has been determined. The asymmetric unit of the title co-crystalline adduct comprises a half molecule of aminal cage polyamine plus a 4-bromophenol molecule. A twofold rotation axis generates the other half of the adduct. The primary inter-species association in the title compound is through two intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, the adducts are linked by weak non-conventional C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, giving a two-dimensional supramolecular structure parallel to the bc plane.
The asymmetric unit of the title co-crystalline adduct, 1,3,6,8-tetraazatricyclo[4.4.1.13,8]dodecane (TATD)–4-iodophenol (1/2), C8H16N4·2C6H5IO, comprises a half molecule of the aminal cage polyamine plus a 4-iodophenol molecule. A twofold rotation axis generates the other half of the adduct. The components are linked by two intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The adducts are further linked into a three-dimensional framework structure by a combination of N⋯I halogen bonds and weak non-conventional C—H⋯O and C—H⋯I hydrogen bonds.
The title compound, C8H16N4·2C11H16O, was synthesized from the corresponding sterically crowded phenol by treatment with the aminal cage polyamine. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction structural analysis revealed the three-molecule aggregate to crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2/c with one half of a 1,3,6,8-tetraaztricyclo[4.4.1.13,8]dodecane (TATD) molecule and one 2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol molecule per asymmetric unit. The crystal structure features intermolecular O—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as intermolecular C—H...π interactions.
