Hydrochlorothiazide forms a 1:1 solvate with aniline, C7H8ClN3O4S2·C6H7N. The crystal structure contains a hydrogen-bonding network comprising two N-H
N and three N-H
O contacts.
Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) is a thiazide diuretic which is known to crystallize in at least one non-solvated form (Dupont & Dideberg, 1972
). The aniline solvate, (I)
, was produced during an automated parallel crystallization polymorph screen on HCT. The sample was identified as a novel form using multisample X-ray powder diffraction analysis of all recrystallized samples (Florence et al., 2003
). Subsequent manual recrystallization from a saturated 1:1 acetone-aniline solution by slow evaporation at 278 K yielded samples of (I)
suitable for single-crystal X-ray analysis (Fig. 1
).
In (I)
, the N1-S1-C1-N2-C2-C7 six-membered ring in HCT adopts a non-planar conformation, with atoms S1 and N1 having deviations of 0.271 (1) and 0.843 (1) Å, respectively, from the least-squares plane through atoms C2-C7. The sulfonamide side chain adopts a torsion angle N3-S2-C5-C4 of 69.05 (12)°, such that atom O4 eclipses H6 and atoms O3 and N3 are staggered with respect to Cl1. In the non-solvated structure (Dupont & Dideberg, 1972
), this group is rotated by approximately 130° compared to (I)
such that the amine group lies on the opposite side of the benzothiadiazine moiety. The aniline molecule is planar, the greatest deviation of any non-H atom from the least-squares plane through C8-C13/N4 being 0.013 (1) Å for C8.
The crystal structure is stabilized by a network of hydrogen bonds interconnecting (a) HCT molecules (Fig. 2
, contacts 1 and 2) and (b) HCT and solvent molecules (contacts 3, 4 and 5). Two C-H
O contacts also exist between HCT molecules (contacts 6 and 7). Contact 1 (N3-H3N
O2) forms a centrosymmetric R22(16) motif between molecules of HCT, whilst contacts 4 and 5 (N4-H5N
N3 and N4-H6N
O4) combine to form an R44(12) motif between aniline and HCT (Fig. 3
). Hydrophobic interactions between HCT and aniline include a C-H
contact and an offset face-to-face (off)
-
approach (Fig. 4
).

The N-bound H atoms were found in difference maps and refined freely [N-H = 0.77 (2)-0.90 (2) Å]. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically at distances of 0.95 (CH) and 0.99 Å (CH2) from the parent C atoms; a riding model was used [Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)] during the refinement process.
