A review of the crystallographic literature is presented whereby structures featuring a quasi-six-membered chelate ring of the type {CuCl⋯HNCS} were evaluated for the presence of intermolecular C-H⋯π(quasi-chelate) interactions. These are shown to stabilise crystal structures leading to zero-, one-,...
