30. a) The NH ⋯ O hydrogen bonds are of comparable length (3.125(2), 3.048(2), 3.120(2), and 3.150(2) Å), while the NH ⋯ N hydrogen bond is shorter (2.812(2) and 2.814(2) Å). The hydrogen bonds connecting the pairs range from 2.913(2) to 3.054(2) Å.
31. b) The length of triple anti-parallel hydrogen bonds is the same within 0.063 Å (2.941(1), 2.961(1), and 3.005(1) Å), while the other hydrogen bond is somewhat longer (3.095(1) Å.
32. The three triple anti-parallel hydrogen bonds range from 2.881(6) Å (NH ⋯ N distance) to 2.867(5) and 2.881(1) Å (NH ⋯ O distance).
