Structure-directing role of CH⋯X (X = C, N, S, Cl) interactions in three ionic cobalt complexes: X-ray investigation and DFT study using QTAIM Vr predictor to eliminate the effect of pure Coulombic forces. RSC Adv 2023; 13:29568-29583.

Abstract
Three cobalt complexes, namely [CoIII(HL1)2(N3)2]ClO4 (1), [CoIII(L2)(HL2)(N3)]ClO4·1.5H2O (2), and [CoIII(L3)(HL3)(NCS)]2 [CoIICl2(NCS)2] (3), where HL1 = 2-(3-(dimethylamino)propyliminomethyl)-6-methoxyphenol, HL2 = 2-(2-(dimethylamino)ethyliminomethyl)-4,6-dichlorophenol, and HL3 = 2-(2-(dimethylamino)ethyliminomethyl)-6-methoxyphenol, as potential tridentate N2O-donor Schiff base ligands, were synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, IR and UV-vis spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. All three were found to be monomeric ionic complexes. Complex 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn, whereas both complexes 2 and 3 crystallize in triclinic space groups, P1̄. Further, 1 and 2 are cationic complexes of octahedral cobalt(iii) with perchlorate anions, whereas complex 3 contains a cationic part of octahedral cobalt(iii) and an anionic part of tetrahedral cobalt(ii). Hydrogen-bonding interactions involving aromatic and aliphatic CH bonds as H-bond donors and the pseudo-halide co-ligands as H-bond acceptors were established, which are important aspects governing the X-ray packing. These interactions were analyzed theoretically using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and non-covalent interaction plot (NCI plot) analyses. Moreover, energy decomposition analysis (EDA) was performed to analyze the stabilization of the complexes in terms of the electrostatic, dispersion, and correlation forces.

Abstract
Stacking interactions between six-membered resonance-assisted hydrogen-bridged (RAHB) rings and C6-aromatic rings were systematically studied by analyzing crystal structures in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). The interaction energies were calculated by quantum-chemical methods. Although the interactions are stronger than benzene/benzene stacking interactions (-2.7 kcal mol-1), the strongest calculated RAHB/benzene stacking interaction (-3.7 kcal mol-1) is significantly weaker than the strongest calculated RAHB/RAHB stacking interaction (-4.7 kcal mol-1), but for a particular composition of RAHB rings, RAHB/benzene stacking interactions can be weaker or stronger than the corresponding RAHB/RAHB stacking interactions. They are also weaker than the strongest calculated stacking interaction between five-membered saturated hydrogen-bridged rings and benzene (-4.4 kcal mol-1) and between two five-membered saturated hydrogen-bridged rings (-4.9 kcal mol-1). SAPT energy decomposition analyses show that the strongest attractive term in RAHB/benzene stacking interactions is dispersion, however, it is mostly canceled by a repulsive exchange term; hence the geometries of the most stable structures are determined by an electrostatic term.

Abstract
Two heteronuclear cobalt(iii)/sodium complexes, [(H2O)2Co(H2L1)Na(N3)2] (1) and (μ-N3)2[(N3)Co(H2L2)Na]2 (2) have been synthesized by the reaction of two compartmental reduced Schiff bases, H2L1 [(1,2-propanediyl)bis(iminomethylene)bis(6-ethoxyphenol)] and H2L2 [(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediyl)bis(iminomethylene)bis(6-ethoxyphenol)], with cobalt(ii) nitrate hexahydrate in methanol. Structures of both the complexes have been confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In each complex, cobalt(iii) is located in the inner N2O2 compartment and sodium is placed in the outer O2O'2 compartment of the respective ligands. In complex 1, the saturated five-membered chelate ring assumes a half-chair conformation, thereby facilitating the anti-orientations of two N-H bonds, which in turn favours the formation of very strong hydrogen bonds forming an infinite one-dimensional assembly. Formation of this one-dimensional chain is also supported by C-Hπ (arene) interactions. On the other hand, the best hydrogen bond donor NH groups are in syn disposition (as the saturated chelate ring is six-membered and assumes a chair conformation) and do not participate in the crystal packing in complex 2. However, very strong C-Hπ(N3) interactions have been established in complex 2, where the π-system of the bridging azide ligand participates as the π-donor. A search in the Cambridge structural database (CSD) has also been carried out to investigate the abundance and directionality of the interaction using different pseudohalides. Energies of all these supramolecular interactions were estimated by DFT calculations including Grimme's dispersion correction and characterized by the NCI plot index computational tool.

Abstract
Quantum chemical calculations were performed on model systems of stacking interactions between the acac type chelate rings of nickel, palladium, and platinum. CCSD(T)/CBS calculations showed that chelate-chelate stacking interactions are significantly stronger than chelate-aryl and aryl-aryl stacking interactions. Interaction energy surfaces were calculated at the LC-ωPBE-D3BJ/aug-cc-pVDZ level, which gives energies in good agreement with CCSD(T)/CBS. The stacking of chelates in an antiparallel orientation is stronger than the stacking in a parallel orientation, which is in agreement with the larger number of antiparallel stacked chelates in crystal structures from the Cambridge Structural Database. The strongest antiparallel chelate-chelate stacking interaction is formed between two platinum chelates, with a CCSD(T)/CBS interaction energy of -9.70 kcal mol-1, while the strongest stacking between two palladium chelates and two nickel chelates has CCSD(T)/CBS energies of -9.21 kcal mol-1 and -9.50 kcal mol-1, respectively. The strongest parallel chelate-chelate stacking was found for palladium chelates, with a LC-ωPBE-D3BJ/aug-cc-pVDZ energy of -6.51 kcal mol-1. The geometries of the potential surface minima are not the same for the three metals. The geometries of the minima are governed by electrostatic interactions, which are the ones determining the positions of the energy minima. Electrostatic interactions are governed by different electrostatic potentials above the metals, which are very positive for nickel, slightly positive for palladium, and slightly negative for platinum.
