This is a tale of a pair of a hydrogen bond donor and acceptor, namely the CH donor and sulphur acceptor, neither of which is a conventional hydrogen bond participant.

1-Benzoylthioureas contain both carbonyl and thiocarbonyl functional groups and are of interest for their biological activity, metal coordination ability and involvement in hydrogen-bond formation. Two novel 1-benzoylthiourea derivatives, namely 1-benzoyl-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)thiourea, C16H16N2O3S, (I), and 1-benzoyl-3-(2-hydroxypropyl)thiourea, C11H14N2O2S, (II), have been synthesized and characterized. Compound (I) crystallizes in the space group P\overline{1}, while (II) crystallizes in the space group P21/c. In both structures, intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonding is present. The resulting six-membered pseudo-rings are quasi-aromatic and, in each case, interact with phenyl rings via stacking-type interactions. C—H...O, C—H...S and C—H...π interactions are also present. In (I), there is one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Pairs of molecules are connected via two intermolecular N—H...S hydrogen bonds, forming centrosymmetric dimers. In (II), there are two symmetry-independent molecules that differ mainly in the relative orientations of the phenyl rings with respect to the thiourea cores. Additional strong hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor –OH groups participate in the formation of intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...S hydrogen bonds that join molecules into chains extending in the [001] direction.

The title compound, C24H18Br2N4O2·H2O, forms a supramolecular structure via N—H...O, O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure, the water molecule serves as a bifurcated hydrogen-bond acceptor and as a hydrogen-bond donor.

Abstract We present machine learning (ML) models for hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and hydrogen bond donor (HBD) strengths. Quantum chemical (QC) free energies in solution for 1:1 hydrogen-bonded complex formation to the reference molecules 4-fluorophenol and acetone serve as our target values. Our acceptor and donor databases are the largest on record with 4426 and 1036 data points, respectively. After scanning over radial atomic descriptors and ML methods, our final trained HBA and HBD ML models achieve RMSEs of 3.8 kJ mol−1 (acceptors), and 2.3 kJ mol−1 (donors) on experimental test sets, respectively. This performance is comparable with previous models that are trained on experimental hydrogen bonding free energies, indicating that molecular QC data can serve as substitute for experiment. The potential ramifications thereof could lead to a full replacement of wetlab chemistry for HBA/HBD strength determination by QC. As a possible chemical application of our ML models, we highlight our predicted HBA and HBD strengths as possible descriptors in two case studies on trends in intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bond donor catalysis represents a rapidly growing subfield of organocatalysis. While traditional hydrogen bond donors containing N–H and O–H moieties have been effectively used for electrophile activation, activation based on other types of non-covalent interactions is less common. This mini review highlights recent progress in developing and exploring new organic catalysts for electrophile activation through the formation of C–H hydrogen bonds and C–X halogen bonds.

Three structures of the form bis(thione)gold(I) di(methanesulfonyl)amide [thione = imidazolidine- 2-thione, 1; 1-methyl-imidazolidine-2-thione, 2; thiazolidine-2-thione, 3] were determined; all crystallize with one formula unit in the asymmetric unit. Each N-H hydrogen bond donor forms one classical two-centre hydrogen bond with an anion acceptor. Compound 1 thereby forms a complex layer structure with a layer thickness of 10.17 Å ; the packing may be analysed in terms of thinner subunit layers consisting of interlinked, hydrogen-bonded chains and rings. Compound 2 forms a chain structure consisting of a series of “hairpin bends”, a common feature in the gold complexes of 1-alkyl-imidazolidine-2-thiones. Compound 3 forms a corrugated ribbon structure in which the central region consists of parallel S-Au-S axes linked by aurophilic interactions; the anions exercise a “clamping” function by forming hydrogen bonds at the periphery of the ribbons. Further short contacts can be classed as weak hydrogen bonds C-H ··· X, with X = N, O, S or Au.

Seven new pregnane compounds bearing some representative A- and B-ring brassinosteroid functions, as well as hydrogen bond donor and acceptor ones on the D ring, were efficiently synthesized. The obtained compounds did not show remarkable plant growth-promoting activity in the radish hypocotyl elongation and cotyledon expansion bioassays, however, introducing oxygen and amino functions on the D ring led to an enhancement of the bioactivity. The 16β-functionalized pregnane brassinosteroid-like compounds were slightly more active than the 16α-functionalized ones.Key words: steroids, brassinosteroids, pregnane analogues.
