In the title compound, [Co(C7H7N2O4)2(H2O)2]·3H2O, the CoII cation, located on an inversion center, is N,O-chelated by two 5-carboxy-2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate anions and further coordinated by two water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. Only one carboxy group of the anion is deprotonated, and the two carboxyl groups of the same anion are linked via an intramolecular O—HO hydrogen bond. One of the lattice water molecules is located on an inversion center, its H atom equally disordered over two positions. One of H atoms of another lattice water molecules is also equally disordered over two sites. Water H atoms and the amino H atom all are involved in an intermolecular hydrogen-bonded network in the crystal.

In the title compound, [Mn(C10H7N6)2(H2O)4]·2H2O, the Mn2+ lies on a twofold rotation axis and is six-coordinated by two N atoms from the cis-related monodentate 5-[4-(imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]tetrazolide ligands and four O atoms from the coordinated water molecules. The complex molecules are connected via water O—HO and O—HN hydrogen bonds and weak π–π stacking interactions between the benzene rings [minimum ring centroid separation = 3.750 (6) Å] into a three-dimensional polymeric structure. The imidazolyl group of the ligand is partially disordered over two sets of sites with refined occupancies of 0.531 (7):0.469 (7).

In the title complex polymer, [Sr(C10H7N6)2(H2O)2]n, the SrII atom lies on an inversion centre and is coordinated by four N atoms from two bidentate bridging trans-related 5-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]tetrazolide ligands [Sr—N = 2.387 (4) Å for the tetrazolide moiety and Sr—N = 2.273 (5) Å for the imidazole moiety], and by two O atoms from water molecules [Sr—O = 2.464 (4) Å], giving a distorted octahedral coordination. Pairs of ligand bridges link the complex units, forming chains which extend along [111] and are inter-associated through Owater—HN hydrogen bonds, giving a two-dimensional network structure parallel to (001). Weak π–π stacking interactions between the benzene and imidazole rings are also present [minimum ring centroid separation = 3.691 (4) Å].

In the title compound, [Cd(C10H7N6)2(H2O)2], the CdII atom lies on an inversion centre and is coordinated by four N atoms from 5-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]tetrazol-1-ide ligands and two O atoms from the coordinated water molecules in an octahedral arrangement. The complex polymeric chains are interconnected via intermolecular water O—HN hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.

In the anion of the title salt, C6H16N+·C18H13O8-, one of the carboxyl groups is deprotonated. Its O atoms are involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding with the carboxyl group of an adjacent anion and the amino group of an adjacent cation. The two benzoyloxy rings are oriented with respect to each other at a dihedral angle of 79.46 (6)°.

In the title compound, C10H8N6, the tetrazole and benzene rings are close to being coplanar [dihedral angle = 9.90 (16)°], but the imidazole ring is rotated 37.18 (09)° out of the benzene plane. In the crystal, molecules are connected through tetrazole–imidazole N—HN hydrogen bonds, giving rise to zigzag chains, which extend along [010].
