If you're after ones that are in the night sky now, I'll add ...
rho ophiuchi. On the border with Scorpius (it is only about 1.3 degrees from omicron Scorpii). On lower power looks like a wide triple in the shape of a delta wing aircraft. The central brighter star AB is a double as well, magnitudes 5/5.7, separation about 3". The wider stars C and D are magnitudes 6.8, 7.3 each about 150" away.
xi Scorpii. A bit more of a challenge to track down. Seen as a nice, very wide double double, separation 279". Brighter pair (STF 1998) are about magnitude 5 and 7.3, separation 6.3". Wider pair (STF 1999) have magnitudes 7.5/8, separation 12".
