Single crystals of Schiff base compound 2-[(2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl) iminomethyl] phenol (1) were grown by the slow evaporation technique at room temperature. The crystal structure of the title compound was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21, with two symmetry independent molecules. Intramolecular O-H···N hydrogen bonds form S(6) motifs in each molecule. Intermolecular C-H···O interactions connect the molecules into a three dimensional network.

The crystal structure of the title chiral Schiff base compound (E)-3,4-dimethoxy[(1-phenylethyl)iminomethyl]bezyne (1) was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data.

The mercury (II) complex, Hg (Meca2en)I2 (1), containing bidentate Schiff base ligand  Meca2en = N,N′-bis[(E)-2-benzylidenepropylidene]ethane-1,2-diamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses (CHN) and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 1 was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural investigation shows that 1 crystallizes in a monoclinic system, with space group P21/n. The Schiff base ligand Meca2en acts as a bidentate ligand coordinating via two N atoms to mercury (II) ion.

Zinc (II) complex, [Zn(25-MBTSC)2I2] (1), where (25-MBTSC = (E)-2-(2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde) thiosemicarbazone, has been synthesized from the reaction of ZnI2 with 25-MBTSC in methanol as solvent at 25 ºC. It was characterized by elemental analysis (CHN) and is confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The complex 1 crystallizes in a triclinic system, with space group P-ī, having one symmetry-independent Zn2+ ion coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral geometry by two S atoms of the 25-MBTSC ligand and by two I atoms. The thiosemicarbazone ligand 25-MBTSC acts as a monodentate ligand and coordinates via one S atom in η1-S bonding mode to the zinc center.
