In the crystal structure of the title salt, C13H20N3+·BF4-, the asymmetric unit has two independent cations and anions. The cations have similar markedly non-planar pentamethinecyan­ine moieties with a trans-cis-cis-trans conformation of the pentamethinecyanine NC5N chain. The pyrrole substituents are rotated 21.14 (9) and 23.43 (19)° from planarity with the adjacent atoms in the pentamethinecyanine chains.

Author response: 1. Data were collected (in 1987) in two shells (2-20 and 20-25 degrees). on a CAD4 diffractometer collecting layers of increasing k-index. The complete 2-20 shell was collected and had index k in the range 0 to 9. It became apparent that there were very few reflections being measured as "observed" in the 20-25 degree shell (which would have had a maximum k-index of 12). When this was noticed, it was decided to stop data collection in the middle of this 20-25 degree shell (at which point the k-index had a value of 7). 2. We fully realise that this data collection does NOT fully meet the current Acta requirements (for at least a full data collection to 25 degrees) but we felt at the time that nothing substantial would be gained by spending time measuring "unobserved" reflections. The data set is 100% complete to a resolution of 0.48 but only 83.7% complete to 0.6 resolution. The reflection/parameter ratio is a satisfactory 10.9/1. 3.

Comment top

The title salt, (1), containing the relatively electron-rich 1-pyrrolyl substituent was prepared in order to determine what effect the 1-pyrrolyl substitution would have on the conformation of the pentamethinecyanine moiety of the cation.

There are two independent cations and anions in the asymmetric unit of (1) with each of the anions disordered over two sites. The pentamethinecyanine moieties in the cations (Fig. 1) have similar, markedly non-planar, trans–cis–cis–trans conformations, with torsion angles Cn1—Cn2—Cn3—Cn4 and Cn2—Cn3—Cn4—Cn5 having values -22.8 (6), -30.7 (6), and -27.2 (6) and -26.4 (6)° for n = 1 and 2, respectively. It is interesting to compare these conformations with those found for the pentamethinecyanine moieties in 5-dimethylamino-N,N-dimethyl-3-(4-pyridyl)-2,4-pentadieniminium tetrafluorobate [(2); all-trans; Ferguson et al., 2001] and in tris(2-dimethylaminoethenyl)methylium perchlorate [(3); trans–trans–cis–trans; Dale, et al. 1988]. In (2), the relatively electron-poor 4-pyridyl substitutent is not conjugated with the pentamethinecyanine, and these two moieties form a dihedral angle of 60.58 (9)°. In (3), which may be regarded as a pentamethinecyanine carrying an electron-rich 2-dimethylaminoethenyl substituent at the central carbon, conjugative interaction results in a change in the conformation of the pentamethincyanine moiety in order to avoid a potentially severe steric interaction between C1—H (or C5—H) and C2—H of the 2-dimethylaminoethenyl substituent. In addition, the cation in (3), which has a threefold symmetry axis, is not planar but adopts a twisted-propeller shape.

In spite of their different conformations, bond lengths within the pentamethinecyanine moiety of (1) do not differ significantly from those reported for the all-trans pentamethinecyanine moieties in the simple parent salt (4) (Honda et al., 1986) and the 3-(4-pyridyl) derivative (2) (Ferguson et al., 2001). The bond lengths within the 1-pyrrolyl substituent of (1) are very similar to those reported (Ferguson & McAlees, 1990) for the 1-pyrrolyl fragment in the pyridinium salt (5), consistent with direct conjugation between the relatively electron-rich 1-pyrrolyl substituent and the electron-poor pentamethinecyanine and pyridinium moieties in (1) and (5) respectively. Such conjugation is also suggested by the relatively short bond between the pyrrole and pentamethinecyanine moieties [C13—N13 1.399 (5) Å and C23—N23 1.409 (5) Å]. With the pentamethinecyanine chain in the all-trans conformation, coplanarity with the pyrrole would result in severe steric interactions between the pyrrole α-H atoms and C1—H and C5—H. These and other interactions are avoided in (1) by adoption of the trans–cis–cis–trans conformation along with out-of-plane twisting as found for (3) (Dale et al., 1988).

Experimental top

A solution of dimethylamine (0.98 g, 22 mmol) in ethanol (7 ml) was added to a suspension of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-4-(1-pyrrolyl)pyridinium chloride [(5); 3.47 g, 10.0 mmol; Ferguson & McAlees, 1990] in ethanol (20 ml) and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. The resulting mixture was filtered, and the collected green–yellow powder (2,4-dinitroaniline) was washed with ethanol (3 × 10 ml). The combined filtrate and washings were evaporated in vacuo to leave a clear orange gum which was taken up in water (50 ml) and filtered to remove yellow insoluble material. The aqueous filtrate was then washed with chloroform (3 × 25 ml) and treated with an aqueous solution (10 ml) of NaBF4 (1.2 g, 11.0 mmol). The resulting mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (3 × 30 ml), the combined extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent was evaporated to leave an orange–red gum. Crystallization from ethanol gave yellow hexagonal plates of (1) (2.32 g, 76% yield; m.p. 397.5–398.5 K).

Refinement top

Compound (1) crystallized in the monoclinic system; space group P21/c from the systematic absences. H atoms were treated as riding atoms with C—H 0.93 and 0.96 Å. Difference maps showed that methyl H atoms at C17, C19 and C29 were disordered and they were modelled using six H sites, each with occupancy 1/2, mutually offset by 60°. The H atoms of the other methyl groups were modelled with free rotation about the relevant C—C bond. It was also apparent that the F atoms of the BF4- ions were disordered over major and minor occupancy sites with common B atoms. The geometry of these tetrahedral BF4- anions was restrained to be near to tetrahedral by use of DFIX commands with an overall restrained B—F distance. The minor occupancy F atoms were allowed for with overall isotropic displacement parameters.
