2-Amino-5-cyanopyridinium nitrate

Abstract top

In the title compound, C6H6N3+·NO3-, the packing is consolidatedby N-H...N and N-H...O hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

In the past five years, we have focused on the chemistry of amine derivatives because of their multiple coordination modes as ligands to metal ions and for the construction of novel metal–organic frameworks (Manzur et al. 2007; Ismayilov et al. 2007; Austria et al. 2007; Wen 2008). We report here the crystal structure of the title compound.

In the title compound (Fig. 1), the N1 atom of the pyridine ring is protonated. The nitrile group and the pyridinium ring are essentially coplanar. The nitrile group C6N3 bond length of 1.133 (3)Å is within the normal range. Crystal cohesion is enforced by N—H···N and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1, Fig. 2).

Experimental top

6-aminonicotinonitrile (3 mmol) was dissolved in the solution of ethanol (20 ml) and nitric acid (1 ml), and evaporated in the air affording colorless block crystals of this compound suitable for X-ray analysis.

Refinement top

All H atoms were located in difference Fourier maps and refined freely.

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.
