In the title methylene-bridged di(tetrahydropyrimidinium) salt, C33H50N42+·2Br−·C2H5OH·H2O, the two tetrahydropyrimidinium rings have envelope conformations with the central CH2 C atom as the flap. Their mean planes are inclined to one another by 73.31 (13)° and the attached benzene rings are inclined to one another by 67.39 (15)°. The methylene-C—N bond lengths in the tetrahydropyrimidinium rings are 1.314 (3) and 1.304 (3) Å, values typical for C=N double bonds. The distances between the methylene-bridge C atom and the linked tetrahydropyrimidinium N atom are 1.457 (3) and 1.465 (3) Å, values typical for C—N single bonds. The molecules co-crystallized with H2O and EtOH molecules from the solvent. In the crystal, there is a zigzag chain along [010] of water molecules linked by one of the Br− anions via O—HBr hydrogen bonds. The second Br− anion is hydrogen bonded (O—HBr) to the ethanol solvent molecule. There are also a number of C—HBr and C—HO hydrogen bonds present, leading to the formation of a two-dimensional network lying parallel to the bc plane.

In the title compound, C28H23BrN2OS, the dihedral angles formed by the imidazole ring with the 5-bromothiophenyl and phenyl rings are 76.90 (8), 34.02 (10) and 80.93 (11)°, respectively. The chiral centre maintains the S configuration of the L-phenylalaninol starting material. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—HN hydrogen bonds, forming chains running parallel to the a-axis direction.

In the title compound, C34H28N2S2, the central imidazole ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0015 Å) forms dihedral angles of 55.7 (3), 17.94 (11) and 86.27 (11)°, respectively, with the mean planes of the attached thienyl and two phenyl substituents. The thienyl ring shows ring-flip disorder [occupancy ratio = 0.647 (2):0.353 (2)]. The chiral centre maintains the S configuration of the L-phenylalaninol starting material. Intra- and intermolecular C—HS hydrogen bonds involving the disordered thienyl ring are observed.
