Abstract top

In the title compound, C11H13N2O+·C2H3O2-·H2O, the dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the imidazole ring is 7.83 (6)°. In the crystal structure, N-H...O and O-H...O hydrogen bonds form a two-dimensional network. All the methyl H atoms are disorderd over two sites with equal occupancies.

Comment top

Imidazole derivatives can have a wide range of biological activities such as analgesic (Ucucu et al., 2001), antiinflammmatory (Maeda et al., 1984), antiparasitic (Quattara et al., 1987), antiepileptic and platelet aggregation inhibitors (Seko et al., 1991). The neutral imidizole component of the title compound could potentially exhibit biological activities (Puratchikody & Doble, 2007). In this paper, we report the crystal structure of the title compound (I).

In the title compound (Fig. 1), the benzene ring and the imidazole ring are approximately co-planar with a dihedral angle of 7.83 (6)° between them. The components of the salt are linked via N-H···O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds link the components of the title compound into a two-dimensional network.

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared according to a literature method (Scott et al., 2004). 1.72 g (20 mmol) butane-2,3-dione, 2.44 g (20 mmol), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 5 g (>50 mmol) NH4Ac were placed in a sealed container with 100 ml CH3Cl:HAc (4:1) as the solvent and heated in a micro-wave at 350 W for 24 min. After the reaction, the solvent was evaporated. The pure product as a dark red crystalline solid was obtained by re-crystallization from hot EtOH/H2O in a yield of 81.6% and suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis.

Refinement top

The water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined with idealized calculated O—H distances of 0.84Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O). All other H atoms were placed at geometrically idealized positions with C—H (methyl) = 0.96 Å and C—H = 0.93Å for phenyl, N—H = 0.86 Å, and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C,N). All methyl H atoms were refined as disorded over two sites with 0.5 occupancy.

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.
