Abstract
Ambient-pressure trigonal phase α of selenourea SeC(NH2)2 is noncentrosymmetric, with high Z' = 9. Under high pressure it undergoes several intriguing transformations, depending on the pressure-transmitting medium and the compression or recrystallization process. In glycerine or oil, α-SeC(NH2)2 transforms into phase β at 0.21 GPa; however in water, phase α initially increases its volume and can be compressed to 0.30 GPa due to the formation of α-SeC(NH2)2·xH2O. The single crystals of α-SeC(NH2)2 and of its partial hydrate α-SeC(NH2)2·xH2O are shattered by pressure-induced transitions. Single crystals of phase β-SeC(NH2)2 were in situ grown in a diamond-anvil cell and studied by X-ray diffraction. The monoclinic phase β is centrosymmetric, with Z' = 2. It is stable to 3.20 GPa at least, but it cannot be recovered at ambient conditions due to strongly strained NH...Se hydrogen bonds. No hydrogen-bonding motifs present in the urea structures have been found in selenourea phases α and β.

Abstract
The solid-form landscape of urea was explored using full interaction maps (FIMs) and data from the CSD to develop optimum protocols for synthesizing co-crystals of urea. As a result, 49 of the 60 attempted reactions produced new co-crystals, and the crystal structures of four of these are presented. Moreover, the goal of reducing the solubility and lowering the hygroscopicity of the parent compound was achieved, which in turn offers new opportunities for application as a slow-release fertilizer with limited hygroscopicity, thereby reducing many current problems of transport, handling, and storage of urea.

Abstract
The 1-arylimidazole-2-thiones, (HmimAr) [Ar = 3,4,5-C6H2(OMe)3, 2,4-C6H3(NO2)(OMe), 2,4,6-C6H2Cl3 and 3,5-C6H3(CF3)2], which feature electronically diverse substituents, may be obtained via acid-catalyzed ring closure of the corresponding N,N'-aryldiethoxyethylthiourea derivatives, ArN(H)C(S)N(H)CH2CH(OEt)2, (H2detuAr), which in turn are obtained via treatment of aminoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal, H2NCH2CH(OEt)2, with the respective arylisothiocyanates (ArNCS). The molecular structures of all of the above N,N'-aryldiethoxyethylthioureas and 1-arylimidazole-2-thiones have been determined by X-ray diffraction, thereby demonstrating that the substituents have a profound effect on the crystal structures. For example, each of the N,N'-aryldiethoxyethylthiourea derivatives adopts a different hydrogen bonding pattern. Specifically, the hydrogen-bonding network in (i) H2detuArCl3 consists of chains of 9-membered rings, with an [ [Formula: see text](9)] motif, that feature one N-H ⋯ O and one N-H ⋯ S interaction, (ii) H2detuArOMe,NO2 consists of chains of 6-membered rings, with an [ [Formula: see text](6)] motif, that feature two head-to-tail N-H ⋯ S interactions, (iii) H2detuAr(CF3)2 consists of a dimer that features two pairs of N-H ⋯ O interactions, of which each pair is a component of an 8-membered ring with an [ [Formula: see text](8)] motif, and (iv) H2detuAr(OMe)3 consists of a chain of head-to-head dimeric rings with a basic [ [Formula: see text](16)] motif, a notable feature of which is that sulfur does not play a role as a hydrogen bond acceptor. Each of the 1-arylimidazole-2-thiones exists as a "head-to-head" hydrogen-bonded dimer in the solid state, with an [ [Formula: see text](8)] motif. However, while the hydrogen-bonded motifs for HmimArCl3 and HmimAr(OMe)3 are planar, those for HmimAr(CF3)2 and HmimArOMe,NO2 are extremely puckered, with fold angles of 24.2° (mean value) and 45.7°, respectively.

Abstract
The title compound, C3H6N2O, crystallizes with imposed twofold symmetry in the space group I4(1)/a. The five-membered ring displays a half-chair conformation. N-H···O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules to form R2(2)(8) rings and thence ribbons parallel to the a and b axes. These intersect via O2H2 rings involving longer H···O contacts. The crystal was merohedrally twinned. Preliminary indications of the higher symmetry space group I4(1)/amd, which would require the ring to be planar, proved to be incorrect. A previous brief report of the structure in Fdd2 is also probably incorrect.
