The chiral title compound, C4H10NO+·C4H5O6·H2O, is a hydrated mol­ecular salt in which the tartaric acid has transferred one proton to the (S)-2-amino­propan-1-ol mol­ecule. The crystal structure is stabilized by a three-dimensional network of N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The absolute configuration was assigned on the basis of the starting materials.

Supporting information


Comment top

The title compound, (I), (Fig. 1), is a hydrated (2R,3R)-tartrate salt of (S)-2-aminopropan-1-ol. (S)-2-aminopropan-1-ol is a key intermediate for the synthesis of potential inhibitors of the bacterial peptidoglycan biosynthesis enzymes MurD and MurE (Humljan et al., 2006).

In the crystal, the (S)-2-aminopropan-1-ol molecule is in a cationic form, and has a positively charged amino group. The tartaric acid molecule is a semi-tartrate ion, with a neutral carboxylic acid group at one end and a negatively charged carboxylate group at the other (Fig. 1). The bond distances and angles in the cation and the anion are normal. The chiralities of the carbon atoms (C2 S, C5 R, C6 R) were assigned according to the known absolute structures of the starting materials.

In the crystal structure of (I), an extensive hydrogen-bond network is built up (Table 1).

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared by the procedure of Bai et al. (2004). Colourless single crystals of (I) were grown by slow evaporation of a solution of methanol and water.

Refinement top

Anomalous dispersion was negligible and Friedel pairs were merged before refinement.

The N– and O-bound H atoms were located in difference maps and their positions were freely refined with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(carrier).

The C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.96–0.98 Å) and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
