Crystals of a second polymorph of violuric acid monohydrate [systematic name: pyrimidine-2,4,5,6(1H,3H)-tetrone monohydrate], C4H3N3O4·H2O, have higher density and a more extensive hydrogen-bonding arrangement than the previously reported polymorph. Violuric acid and water mol­ecules form essentially planar hydrogen-bonded sheets, which are stacked in an offset ...ABCABC... repeat pattern involving no ring-stacking inter­actions.

The crystal structure of the title compound, C9H11NO·C9H9N5, contains one mol­ecule of each component in the asymmetric unit. Approximately planar clusters of four mol­ecules are formed by N-H...N and N-H...O hydrogen bonds, and further N-H...N hydrogen bonds link adjacent clusters to form pleated ribbons. [pi]-[pi] inter­actions are found between triazine and aldehyde benzene rings in different clusters, generating stacks along the monoclinic b axis. The intra­molecular geometry of the two components is similar to that found in other crystal structures containing these mol­ecules. Both mol­ecules are approximately planar, except for methyl H atoms, with a small twist about the C-C bond linking the phenyl and triazine rings.

The 1:1 adduct of N,N'-bis­(2-chloro­benzyl­idene)ethylene­diamine (cb2en) with copper(I) chloride proves to be an ionic compound with CuI-centred cations and anions, [Cu(C16H14Cl2N2)2][CuCl2]·CH3CN. In the cation, the CuI atom has a flattened tetra­hedral coordination geometry, with a small bite angle for the chelating ligands, which form a double-helical arrangement around the metal centre. The anion is almost linear, as expected. The packing of the cations involves inter­molecular [pi]-[pi] inter­actions, which lead to columns of translationally related cations along the shortest unit-cell axis, with anions and solvent mol­ecules in channels between them.
