(R)-(-)-3-Hydroxyquinuclidinium chloride

M. Siczek and T. Lis

Abstract top

The quinuclidinium cation of the title compound, C7H14NO+·Cl-, shows a twist along the C-N pseudo-threefold axis, with N-C-C-C torsion angles of -16.0 (1), -16.9 (1) and -15.6 (1)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-H...Cl and O-H...Cl hydrogen bonds, forming infinite chains along the a and b axes.

Comment top

Since the first synthesis of potassium µ-oxo-bis[pentachlororhenate(IV)] (Noddack & Noddack, 1933) numerous efforts have been undertaken to quantitatively describe its structure. To the present day only one structure of [Re2OCl10]4- with potassium cations and one of its oxidized form, [Re2OCl10]3-, with caesium cations have been successfully determined by X-Ray crystallography (Morrow, 1962; Lis & Jeżowska-Trzebiatowska, 1976; Lis et al., 1975;). Our structural studies on [Re2OCl10]4- and [Re2OCl10]3- have shown that the appropriate choice of cation is crucial to obtain good structural parameters for the anion unit. The most suitable properties of the cation are low symmetry, chirality and the ability to form hydrogen bonds. All these requirements are fulfilled by (R)-(–)-3-hydroxyquinuclidinium cation. Quinuclidinium derivatives have been of interest due to their biological activity, especially as a acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (Bosak et al., 2005). It was also proven that quinuclidinium salts protected rats against the toxicity of soman and tabun (Sterling et al., 1988). Aside from the present study, the only other known structure of (R)-(–)-3-hydroxyquinuclidinium was with (R,R)-tartrate anion (Erman et al., 1994).

The asymmetric unit of the crystal (Fig. 1) consists of a (R)-(–)-3-hydroxyquinuclidinium cation and a chloride anion. The quinuclidine moiety has almost exact threefold symmetry about N1–C4, and the two subunits (N1, C2, C6, C7 and C4, C3, C5, C8) are twisted about this axis. The deformation of quinuclidinium cation is reflected in the values of the N1—C2—C3—C4, N1—C6—C5—C4, N1—C7—C8—C4 torsion angles, which are -16.0 (1)° -16.9 (1)° -15.6 (1)°, respectively. Similar rotation has also been observed, but with slightly smaller angles, in 3-hydroxyquinuclidinium tartrate (Erman et al., 1994). The bond lengths of the cation are all normal and are in good agreement with quinuclidinium derivatives (Carroll et al., 1991; Erman et al., 1994; Frackenpohl & Hoffmann, 2000). The anion is surrounded by six symmetry-related cations that act as hydrogen bond acceptors for O—H and N—H groups. The hydrogen bonds link cations and anions into infinite chains running in the a and b axis directions (Figs. 2,3).

Experimental top

The title compound was obtained from a commercial source (Aldrich) and dissolved in hot methanol. Colourless crystals grew from the solution after a few hours.

Refinement top

The H atoms firstly were all located in difference maps, then set in calculated positions and refined as riding atoms [C—H = 0.99–1.00 Å, O—H = 0.84 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(O)].

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.
