2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine hydrochloride hydrate (I) was determined by X-ray crystallography, and the intermolecular interaction energies were calculated in terms of Natural Bond Orbital analysis. The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of a dinitrophenylhydrazinium cation, a chloride anion and a water molecule. The interatomic distances and angles in (I) show no unusual values. In the structure there are intermolecular N-H⊎⊎⊎O, N-H⊎⊎⊎Cl, O-H⊎⊎⊎Cl, C-H⊎⊎⊎O hydrogen bonds with bonding energy ranging form 16.03 to 0.76 kcal mol−1. These hydrogen bonds create the following N1 motifs: 6D, S(5), S(6), C(6), C(9). N1D motifs become infinite at the third level and are 2C 32(6), C 32(7). [...]

The intermolecular non-covalent interactions in aminonitromethylbenzenes namely 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline, 4-methyl-3-nitroaniline, 2-methyl-6-nitroaniline, 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene, 2-methyl-5-nitroaniline, 4-methyl-2-nitroaniline, 2,3-dimethyl-6-nitroaniline, 4,5-dimethyl-2-nitroaniline and 2-methyl-3,5-dinitroaniline were studied by quantum mechanical calculations at RHF/311++G(3df,2p) and B3LYP/311++G(3df,2p) level of theory. The calculations prove that solely geometrical study of hydrogen bonding can be very misleading because not all short distances (classified as hydrogen bonds on the basis of interaction geometry) are bonding in character. For studied compounds interaction energy ranges from 0.23 kcal mol−1 to 5.59 kcal mol−1. The creation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds leads to charge redistribution in donors and acceptors. The Natural Bonding Orbitals analysis shows that hydrogen bonds are created by transfer of electron density from the lone pair orbitals of the H-bond acceptor to the antibonding molecular orbitals of the H-bond donor and Rydberg orbitals of the hydrogen atom. The stacking interactions are the interactions of delocalized molecular π-orbitals of the one molecule with delocalized antibonding molecular π-orbitals and the antibonding molecular σ-orbital created between the carbon atoms of the second aromatic ring and vice versa.
