In the title compound, cis-[PtCl2(C5H13N3)(C2H6OS)], the four-coordinate PtII atom is bonded to one N atom of the N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidine ligand, one dimethyl sulfoxide S atom and two chloride ligands, forming a cis-square-planar geometry. The bond lengths and angles of the N—Pt—Cl functionality are typical for imine dichloridoplatinum(II) complexes. The H atom of the imino group is oriented towards the O atom of the sulfoxide group of a neighboring molecule and forms an N—HO hydrogen bond.

In the title compound, (C5H6N)[Fe(NCS)4(C5H5N)2]·4C5H3N3·C5H5N, the FeIII ion is located on an inversion centre and is six-coordinated by four N atoms of the thiocyanate ligands and two pyridine N atoms in a trans arrangement, forming a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. A half-occupied H atom attached to a pyridinium cation forms an N—HN hydrogen bond with a centrosymmetrically-related pyridine unit. Four pyrazine-2-carbonitrile molecules crystallize per complex anion. In the crystal, π–π stacking interactions are present [centroid–centroid distances = 3.6220 (9), 3.6930 (9), 3.5532 (9), 3.5803 (9) and 3.5458 (8) Å].

In the title compound, (C5H6N)[Fe(NCS)4(C5H5N)2], the FeIII ion is coordinated by four thiocyanate N atoms and two pyridine N atoms in a trans arrangement, forming an FeN6 polyhedron with a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Charge balance is achieved by one pyridinium cation bound to the complex anion via N—HS hydrogen bonding. The asymmetric unit consists of one FeIII cation, four thiocyanate anions, two coordinated pyridine molecules and one pyridinium cation. The structure exhibits π–π interactions between pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.7267 (2), 3.7811 (2) and 3.8924 (2) Å]. The N atom and a neighboring C atom of the pyridinium cation are statistically disordered with an occupancy ratio of 0.58 (2):0.42 (2).

The title compound, C14H16N6O2, is a second monoclinic polymorph of 2-[1-(3,5-dimethyl)pyrazolyl]-2-hydroxyimino-N′-[1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene] acetohydrazide, with two crystallographically independent molecules per asymmetric unit. The non-planar molecules are chemically equal having similar geometric parameters. The previously reported polymorph [Plutenko et al. (2012). Acta Cryst. E68, o3281] was described in space group Cc (Z = 4). The oxime group and the O atom of the amide group are anti with respect to the C—C bond. In the crystal, molecules are connected by N—HN hydrogen bonds into zigzag chains extending along the b axis.
