abstract = "The quantitative assessment of intermolecular interactions and their cooperative effects has been performed in spirohydantoin-based model compounds, 3-benzoyl-1,3-diazaspiro[4.5]decane-2,4-dione (1) and 3-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-1,3-diazaspiro[4.5]decane-2,4-dione (2), through single crystal X-ray crystallography and quantum chemical studies. In both crystal structures, molecules generate the same hydrogen-bonded centrosymmetric R22(8) synthon. The extended supramolecular architectures depend on the C-HMIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSISO, C-HMIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS pi, stacking interactions and parallel interactions at large offsets, which lead to molecular sheets and further, with the assistance of the C-HMIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSISF interaction in the case of 2, to three-dimensional networks. Electrostatic potential maps have indicated that formation of the intermolecular FMIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSISF interaction in the crystal structure of 2 results in a new region with a larger surface area and a higher negative potential in comparison to the individual fluorine atoms. Establishment of this interaction leads to strengthening of the interaction of one of the fluorine atoms with a third molecule from the environment which does not interact with both of them. When this third molecule interacts with both fluorine atoms simultaneously, the calculations have shown that the effect of strengthening of the individual interactions due to formation of the FMIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSISF interaction is absent.",
