Crystals of planar organic radicals are an interesting tool in crystal engineering for studying \u03c0\u2013interactions and \u03c0\u2013stacking.1<\/sup>  Organic radicals usually form strong stacking interactions with short distance between ring planes and with energy higher than -15 kcal mol-1. Quantum mechanical models indicate that these interactions can have non-negligible covalent character (two-electron multicentric bonding \u2013 pancake bonding).2<\/sup>  Pronounced \u03c0-stacking motifs contribute to properties of the material, like electric conductivity and magnetism.3<\/sup> Today we use different crystallographic methods to study this phenomenon in detail. Here we present a study on strong \u03c0\u2013interaction, pancake bonding, in three different salts: 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) salts with 1,4-dimethyl-DABCO (1) and N,N-dipyridylmethanium (2) and N,N,N\u2032,N\u2032-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) chloride salt cocrystal with 2,5-dichlorohydroquinone (3). In crystal structures of studied compounds, there are two different types of stacks observed; dimers and trimers of TCNQ anions and dimers of TMPD cations. Prepared crystals were studied by a combination of variable-temperature crystallography (80 \u2212 400 K) and X-ray charge density.[4] These methods tested stability of prepared compounds and revealed fine details of electron density between the stacked molecules. In all three structures expected temperature dependent changes were noticed; distances between ring planes increased with increasing the temperature. Crystals 1 and 2 were stable from 80\u2013400 K while crystal 3 was stable up to arround 340 K. Within this work pancake-bonding between radical cations was studied for the first time by X-ray charge density.<\/p>\n
