Abstract
Cocrystals of thiourea with 4-nitropyridine N-oxide, C5H4N2O3·2CH4N2S, (I), and 3-bromopyridine N-oxide, C5H4BrNO·CH4N2S, (II), crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c. In the crystals, molecules of both components are linked by N-H...O hydrogen bonds, creating R21(6) synthons. The bromine substituent of the N-oxide component in (II) is a centre for C-Br...S halogen bonding to the thiourea molecule. Computations based on quantum chemistry methods (quantum theory of atoms in molecules, QTAIM) and atoms in molecules (AIM) theory were performed for a more detailed description of the observed type of halogen-bonding interaction.
