Three crystal structures have been analysed from the point of view of intermolecular interactions: N,N'-diphenyl-1,4-benzoquinone diimine, C18H14N2, (I), its reduced form N,N'-diphenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine, C18H16N2, (II), and N,N' diphenyl-1,4-phenylenediammonium bis(p-toluenesulfonate), C18H18N22+.2C(7)H(7)O(3)S(-), (III), which contains fully protonated (II) with p-toluenesulfonic acid. The local molecular C-i symmetry is preserved in all three structures and the packing seems to be dominated by the mutual arrangement of the simple polyaniline oligomers in the different protonation states. In (I), the most significant molecular interactions are stacking forces, forming columns of molecules along [001]. Close packing of the columns results in C-centring of the structure. In (II), only van der Waals interactions can be observed. In the structure of (III), the p-toluenesulfonate ions serve as acceptors in relatively strong N-H...O hydrogen bonds. The N,N' -diphenyl-1,4-phenylenediammonium cation intercalates between two anions related by a centre of symmetry.
