Abstract
Despite the limited applications and scarcity of commercial examples of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, their exceptional properties hold great potential, representing a significant challenge in discovering more critical applications. Herein, we present a microwave-assisted approach for preparing 2-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidin-5(8H)-ones and their alkylation and bromination products using easily accessible and inexpensive reagents, thus offering a promising avenue for further search. Notably, the photophysical properties of an N-alkyl derivative were investigated, and the results highlight the high potential of these compounds as modular fluorophores. All the products were obtained with high yields using highly efficient protocols, and the regioselectivity of the reactions was determined on the basis of NMR measurements and X-ray diffraction analysis.

Abstract
Derivatives of 4-hydroxypyrimidine are an important class of biomolecules. These compounds can undergo keto-enol tautomerization in solution, though a search of the Cambridge Structural Database shows a strong bias toward the 3H-keto tautomer in the solid state. Recrystallization of 2-amino-5,6-dimethyl-4-hydroxypyrimidine, C6H9N3O, from aqueous solution yielded triclinic crystals of the 1H-keto tautomer, denoted form (I). Though not apparent in the X-ray data, the IR spectrum suggests that small amounts of the 4-hydroxy tautomer are also present in the crystal. Monoclinic crystals of form (II), comprised of a 1:1 ratio of both the 1H-keto and the 3H-keto tautomers, were obtained from aqueous solutions containing uric acid. Forms (I) and (II) exhibit one-dimensional and three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding motifs, respectively.

Abstract
It is well known that pyrimidin-4-one derivatives are able to adopt either the 1H- or the 3H-tautomeric form in (co)crystals, depending on the coformer. As part of ongoing research to investigate the preferred hydrogen-bonding patterns of active pharmaceutical ingredients and their model systems, 2-amino-6-chloropyrimidin-4-one and 2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4-one have been cocrystallized with several coformers and with each other. Since Cl and Br atoms both have versatile possibilities to interact with the coformers, such as via hydrogen or halogen bonds, their behaviour within the crystal packing was also of interest. The experiments yielded five crystal structures, namely 2-aminopyridin-1-ium 2-amino-6-chloro-4-oxo-4H-pyrimidin-3-ide-2-amino-6-chloropyrimidin-4(3H)-one (1/3), C5H7N2(+)·C4H3ClN3O(-)·3C4H4ClN3O, (Ia), 2-aminopyridin-1-ium 2-amino-6-chloro-4-oxo-4H-pyrimidin-3-ide-2-amino-6-chloropyrimidin-4(3H)-one-2-aminopyridine (2/10/1), 2C5H7N2(+)·2C4H3ClN3O(-)·10C4H4ClN3O·C5H6N2, (Ib), the solvent-free cocrystal 2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one-2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4(1H)-one (1/1), C5H6BrN3O·C5H6BrN3O, (II), the solvate 2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one-2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4(1H)-one-N-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (1/1/1), C5H6BrN3O·C5H6BrN3O·C5H9NO, (III), and the partial cocrystal 2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one-2-amino-5-bromo-6-methylpyrimidin-4(1H)-one-2-amino-6-chloropyrimidin-4(3H)-one (0.635/1/0.365), C5H6BrN3O·C5H6BrN3O·C4H4ClN3O, (IV). All five structures show R2(2)(8) hydrogen-bond-based patterns, either by synthon 2 or by synthon 3, which are related to the Watson-Crick base pairs.

Abstract
The title compound, C4H6N3O+·C5H3N2O4−·2H2O or Cyt+·Or−·2H2O, was synthesized by a reaction between cytosine (4-amino-2-hydroxypyrimidine, Cyt) and orotic acid (2,4-dihydroxy-6-carboxypyrimidine, Or) in aqueous solution. The two ions are joined by two N+—H⋯O− (±)-(CAHB) hydrogen bonds, forming a dimer with graph-set motif R22(8). In the crystal, the ion pairs of the asymmetric unit are joined by four N—H⋯O interactions to adjacent dimers, forming hydrogen-bonded rings with R22(8) graph-set motif in a two-dimensional network. The formation of the three-dimensional array is facilitated by water molecules, which act as bridges between structural sub-units linked in R32(8) and R32(7) hydrogen-bonded rings. The orotate anion is essentially planar, as the dihedral angle between the planes defined by the carboxylate group and the uracil fragment is 4.0 (4)°.

Abstract
The title salt, C8H11N2O+·NO3−, was synthesized by a reaction between 4-methoxybenzamidine (4-amidinoanisole) and nitric acid. The asymmetric unit comprises a non-planar 4-methoxybenzamidinium cation and a nitrate anion. In the cation, the amidinium group has two similar C—N bond lengths [1.302 (3) and 1.313 (3) Å] and its plane forms a dihedral angle of 32.66 (5)° with the mean plane of the benzene ring. The nitrate–amidinium ion pair is not planar, as the dihedral angle between the planes defined by the CN2+ and NO3− units is 19.28 (6)°. The ionic components are associated in the crystal via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three-dimensional network.

Abstract
The title hydrated salt, C8H11N2O+·C2HO4−·H2O, was synthesized by a reaction of 4-methoxybenzamidine (4-amidinoanisole) and oxalic acid in water solution. In the cation, the amidinium group forms a dihedral angle of 15.60 (6)° with the mean plane of the benzene ring. In the crystal, each amidinium unit is bound to three acetate anions and one water molecule by six distinct N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The ion pairs of the asymmetric unit are joined by two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into ionic dimers in which the carbonyl O atom of the semi-oxalate anion acts as a bifurcated acceptor, thus generating an R12(6) motif. These subunits are then joined through the remaining N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to adjacent semi-oxalate anions into linear tetrameric chains running approximately along the b axis. The structure is stabilized by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The water molecule plays an important role in the cohesion and the stability of the crystal structure being involved in three hydrogen bonds connecting two semi-oxalate anions as donor and a benzamidinium cation as acceptor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytosine is a biologically important compound owing to its natural occurrence as a component of nucleic acids. Cytosine plays a crucial role in DNA/RNA base pairing, through several hydrogen-bonding patterns, and controls the essential features of life as it is involved in genetic codon of 17 amino acids. The molecular recognition among cytosines, and the molecular heterosynthons of molecular salts fabricated through proton-transfer reactions, might be used to investigate the theoretical sites of cytosine-specific DNA-binding proteins and the design for molecular imprint. RESULTS Reaction of cytosine (Cyt) and 5-fluorocytosine (5Fcyt) with 5-nitrouracil (Nit) in aqueous solution yielded two new products, which have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The products include a dihydrated molecular salt (CytNit) having both ionic and neutral hydrogen-bonded species, and a dihydrated cocrystal of neutral species (5FcytNit). In CytNit a protonated and an unprotonated cytosine form a triply hydrogen-bonded aggregate in a self-recognition ion-pair complex, and this dimer is then hydrogen bonded to one neutral and one anionic 5-nitrouracil molecule. In 5FcytNit the two neutral nucleobase derivatives are hydrogen bonded in pairs. In both structures conventional N-H...O, O-H...O, N-H+...N and N-H...N- intermolecular interactions are most significant in the structural assembly. CONCLUSION The supramolecular structure of the molecular adducts formed by cytosine and 5-fluorocytosine with 5-nitrouracil, CytNit and 5FcytNit, respectively, have been investigated in detail. CytNit and 5FcytNit exhibit widely differing hydrogen-bonding patterns, though both possess layered structures. The crystal structures of CytNit (Dpka = -0.7, molecular salt) and 5FcytNit (Dpka = -2.0, cocrystal) confirm that, at the present level of knowledge about the nature of proton-transfer process, there is not a strict correlation between the Dpka values and the proton transfer, in that the acid/base pka strength is not a definite guide to predict the location of H atoms in the solid state. Eventually, the absence in 5FcytNit of hydrogen bonds involving fluorine is in agreement with findings that covalently bound fluorine hardly ever acts as acceptor for available Brønsted acidic sites in the presence of competing heteroatom acceptors.
