Abstract The crystal structures of 4,7-phenanthrolino-5,6:5′,6′-pyrazine tetrahydrate (I) and 1,4,5,8,9,12-hexaazatriphenylene dihydrate (II) have been determined from low temperature (173 K) x-ray single crystal diffraction data. I crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P $$\overline 1$$ with a = 11.2687(6), b = 12.4766(6), c = 12.7068(7) Å, α = 113.4740(10), β = 91.605(2), γ = 114.587(2)°, V = 1449.33(13) Å3, and Z = 4. II crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pca21 with a = 18.187(2), b = 9.2576(11), c = 6.9672(8) Å, V = 1173.0(2) Å3, and Z = 4. In both structures the planar heterocyclic molecules stack with interplanar distances down to 3.3 Å, which is consistent with self-π-complexation. The crystal water molecules provide links between the columns of stacked molecules through hydrogen bonds. In each compound the N-C bond lengths fall into two distinct groups (mean values 1.330(3) vs 1.361(1) Å in I and 1.320(3) vs 1.357(5) Å in II), as do the C-C bonds of the central phenyl rings (1.411(4) vs 1.467(1) Å in I and 1.405(5) vs 1.458(4) Å in II).
