In this manuscript we report the synthesis and X-ray characterization of neutral 2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-pyrimidine (1), 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-pyrimidine (2) and 1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-1H-benzimidazole (3). We have also obtained crystals of the corresponding hydrochlorides of compounds 1 and 3. Finally, the outer sphere complex of protonated 2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-pyrimidine with [CoCl4]2?/sup> as counterion is described. In several charged structures interesting anion-¦Ð interactions determine the crystal packing. Moreover, in neutral systems some stacking interactions are governed by double lone pair-¦Ð interactions. High level ab initio calculations (RI-MP2/def2-TZVP) have been used to evaluate the noncovalent interactions observed in the solid state and the interplay between them.
