The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C7H10N)2[PtCl6], contains one independent protonated 2,6-dimethylpyridinium cation and half of a centrosymmetric [PtCl6]2- anion. The Pt atom has an octahedral coordination. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N-H
Cl and C-H
Cl hydrogen bonds result in the formation of a supramolecular structure. There is a
-
contact between the pyridine rings [centroid-centroid distance = 4.235 (1) Å].
For the preparation of the title compound, a solution of 2,6-dimethylpyridine (0.16 g, 1.48 mmol, 0.17 ml) in methanol (15 ml) was added to a solution of H2PtCl6.6H2O, (0.38 g, 0.74 mmol) in acetonitrile (15 ml) and the resulting yellow solution was stirred for 10 min at 313 K. Then, it was left to evaporate slowly at room temperature. After one week, orange prismatic crystals of were isolated (yield; 0.34 g; 73.6%).
H1D atom (for NH) was located in difference syntheses and refined isotropically [N-H = 0.85 (7) Å and Uiso(H) = 0.029 (17) Å2]. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C-H = 0.93 and 0.96 Å for aromatic and methyl H, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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 > 2sigma(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. |

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in proton transfer systems and their structures (Rafizadeh et al., 2006; Yousefi, Amani & Khavasi, 2007; Abedi et al., 2008; Hojjat Kashani et al., 2008). Several proton transfer systems using 2,6-dimethylpyridine, with proton donor molecules, such as [2,6-dmpy.H](NO3), (II), (Jin et al., 2003), [2,6-dmpy.H]2[CoCl4], (III), (Kansikas et al., 1994), [2,6-dmpy.H]Cl, (IV), (Effendy et al., 2006), [2,6-dmpy.H]3[BiBr6], (V), (Bowmaker et al., 1998), [2,6-dmpy.H]2- [O3CrOCrO3], (VI), (Jin et al., 2006) and [2,6-dmpy.H][Ph(COOH)(COO)], (VII), (Jin et al., 2000) [2,6-dmpy.H is 2,6-dimethylpyridinium] have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods.
There are also several proton transfer systems using H2[PtCl6] with proton acceptor molecules, such as [HpyBr-3]2[PtCl6].2H2O, (XIII), and [HpyI-3]2[PtCl6].2H2O, (IX),(Zordan & Brammer, 2004), [BMIM]2[PtCl6], (X), and [EMIM]2[PtCl6], (XI), (Hasan et al., 2001), {(DABCO)H2[PtCl6]}, (XII), (Juan et al., 1998), {p-C6H4(CH2ImMe)2[PtCl6]}, (XIII), (Li & Liu, 2003), [het][PtCl6].2H2O, (XIV), (Hu et al., 2003), [9-MeGuaH]2[PtCl6].2H2O, (XV), (Terzis & Mentzafos, 1983), [H10[30]aneN10][PtCl6]2Cl6.2H2O, (XVI), (Bencini et al., 1992), [H2Me2ppz][PtCl6], (XVII), (Ciccarese et al., 1998), [PA]2[PtCl6]Cl, (XVIII), (Delafontaine et al., 1987), [DEA]2[PtCl6], (XIX), (Bokach et al., 2003), [HpyCl-3]3[PtCl6]Cl, (XX), (Zordan et al., 2005), [2,9-dmphen.H]2- [PtCl6], (XXI), (Yousefi, Ahmadi et al., 2007), [H2DA18C6][PtCl6].2H2O, (XXII), (Yousefi et al., 2007a) and [TBA]3[PtCl6]Cl, (XXIII), (Yousefi et al., 2007b) [where hpy is halo- pyridinium, BMIM+ is 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium, EMIM+ is 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium, DABCO is 1,4-diazabicyclooctane, Im is imidazolium, het is 2-(α-hydroxyethyl) thiamine, 9-MeGuaH is 9-methylguaninium, [H10[30]aneN10] is [C20H60N10]10+ cation, H2Me2ppz is N,N'-dimethylpiperazinium, PA is pentane-1,5- diammonium, DEA is diethyl-ammonium, 2,9-dmphen.H is 2,9-dimethyl-1,10 -phenanthrolinium, H2DA18C6 is 1,10-Diazonia-18-crown-6 and TBA is tribenzylammonium] have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. We report herein the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound, (I).
The asymmetric unit of (I), (Fig. 1) contains one independent protonated 2,6-di- methylpyridinium cation and half of a centrosymmetric [PtCl6]2- anion. The Pt ion has an octahedral coordination. In cation, the bond lengths and angles are in good agreement with the corresponding values in (II) and (IV). In [PtCl6]2- anion, the Pt-Cl bond lengths and Cl-Pt-Cl bond angles (Table 1) are also within normal ranges, as in (XXI), (XXII) and (XXIII).
In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), intermolecular N-H···Cl and C-H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Table 2) result in the formation of a supramolecular structure, in which they may be effective in the stabilization of the structure. A π—π contact between A (N1/C2-C6) rings Cg1···Cg1i [symmetry code: (i) -x, 1 - y, 1 - z, where Cg1 is centroid of the ring A (N1/C2-C6)] further stabilize the structure, with centroid-centroid distance of 4.235 (1) Å.
