metal-organic compounds
The new nano-sized rigid double-armed oxadiazole-bridged ligand 2,5-bis{2-methyl-5-[2-(pyridin-3-yl)ethenyl]phenyl}-1,3,4-oxadiazole has been used to create two novel metallocyclic complexes with one adopting a 20-membered `0'-shaped metallocyclic structure and the second adopting a discrete `8'-shaped metallocyclic structure.

organic compounds
Three 5,6-trimethylenepyrimidin-4-one derivatives display a combination of N-HO, N-HS, C-HO and C-HN hydrogen bonds. The study of the molecular and supramolecular structures of thiouracil derivatives is significant in the development of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 inhibitors.

Two different one-dimensional supramolecular chains with CoII cations have been synthesized based on the semi-rigid ligand 2-[1-(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)quinoline (L), obtained by condensation of 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)quinoline and 4-(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride, and the precursors Co(NO3)2 and CoCl2.
