In the crystal structure of the title compound, C10H22N2O42+·2Cl or (H2Me2eddp)Cl2 (H2Me2eddp2+ is the dimethyl N,N′-di-3-propane­carboxylato­ethane-1,2-diyldiimin­ium cation), the packing is stabilized by an infinite two-dimensional ⋯Cl⋯H—N—H⋯Cl⋯ hydrogen-bonding network. In addition, short C—H⋯Cl contacts are observed.

Comment top

The title compound (H2Me2eddp)Cl2 belongs to a class of compounds that have recently been used as ligand precursors in the synthesis of Co(III), Pt(II) and Pt(IV) complexes (Kaluđerović & Sabo, 2002; Kaluđerović et al., 2008). The platinum complexes have been tested against various types of tumor cell lines and some of them have shown promising results in in vitro studies (Kaluđerović et al., 2005; Mijatović et al., 2005). There are few crystal structures of these ligand precursors, or indeed of the corresponding platinum complexes, reported in the literature. To date, only four solid state structures of metal complexes containing platinum(IV) (Kaluđerović et al., 2007, 2008; Krajčinović et al., 2008), and only one crystal structure of ligand precursor O,O'-diisopropyl-ethylenediammonium-(S,S)-di-2-propanoate dichloride, [(S,S)-H2i-Pr2eddp]Cl2 (Krajčinović et al., 2008) have been described.

Bond lengths and angles for the title compound are in the same range as found for [(S,S)-H2i-Pr2eddp]Cl2 (Krajčinović et al., 2008). All non H atoms in the H2Me2eddp2+ cation are essentially co-planar with the largest deviation being for the C1 atom (0.175 (2) Å). The solid-state structure is stabilized by H-bonds. The H2Me2eddp2+ cations are joined in infinite two-dimensional networks through H-bonds via N—H groups and chloride anions (···Cl···H—N—H···Cl···; Figs. 2 and 3). The structural parameters of these two hydrogen bonds (N—H3···Cl = 3.064 (2) Å, N—H3···Cl = 171 (2)°, N—H4···Cl = 3.092 (2) Å, N—H4···Cl = 156 (2)°) are in accord with analogous hydrogen bonds in [(S,S)-H2i-Pr2eddp]Cl2 (Krajčinović et al., 2008). Furthermore, short C—H···Cl contacts (C—H···Cl = 3.619 (3) Å, C—H···Cl = 156 (2)°) provide additional stabilization to the structure (Aakeröy et al., 1999; Bruhn et al., 2008).

Experimental top

The title compound was obtained as described in literature (Kaluđerović & Sabo, 2002). Colourless single crystals suitable for X-ray structure determination were obtained from mother liquor by slow evaporation at room temperature over several days.

Refinement top

The amine and methylene H atoms were found in a difference map and refined while methyl H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding, with C–H bond lengths constrained to 0.96 Å.

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.
