4,4'-Iminodipyridinium bis(hydrogen phthalate)

D. P. Martin and R. L. LaDuca

Abstract top

In the title salt, C10H11N32+·2C8H5O4-, doubly protonated 4,4'-dipyridylamine (dpa) cations participate in N-H...O hydrogen bonding with two hydrogen phthalate anions to form a neutral unit. Both anions contain an intramolecular O-H...O hydrogen bond. In the crystal structure, these units form two-dimensional layers through [pi]-[pi] stacking interactions with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.763 (3) Å. In turn, these layers aggregate in three dimensions by additional N-H...O hydrogen bonding. The assignment to the noncentrosymmetric space group P1 is corroborated by chemically unreasonable aromatic ring bond distances and poor K scale factor distributions for a disordered model in the centrosymmetric P\overline{1} space group.

Comment top

Co-crystals containing carboxylic acids and imines have exhibited enticing physical properties such as ferroelectricity (Horiuchi et al., 2005). Proton transfer between carboxylic acid and pyridine components has been observed in this class of co-crystals (Bhogala & Nangia, 2003). Charge-separated hydrogen bonding interactions serve to promote the stability of these co-crystals (Steiner, 2002). Because of locked conformation between its pyridyl rings in the solid-state, crystals of pure dpa are noncentrosymmetric (Cordes et al., 2006). Coordination polymers containing dpa have been observed to crystallize in noncentrosymmetric space groups (Montney et al., 2007). Thus we have sought to prepare chiral dpa-containing co-crystals.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt contains a doubly protonated [H2dpa]2+ dication, and two hydrogen phthalate ([phtH]-) ions (Fig. 1). The similar C—O bond lengths at the carboxylate termini marked by C17 and C28 indicate the presence of delocalized π bonds. On the other hand the C—O bond distances at C18 and C27 show greater CO and C—O single bond character.

Each [H2dpa]2+ dication is linked to [Hpht]- anions on either side to form neutral [H2dpa][[Hpht]2 units, via N—H···O hydrogen bonding donation from both of its pyridinium termini to [Hpht]- carboxylate oxygen atoms. These neutral units then engage in ππ stacking between pyridyl and benzene rings (centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.763 Å) to construct pseudo two-dimensional layer patterns that lie parallel to the (101) crystal planes (Fig. 2).

The [H2dpa][[Hpht]2 layers are connected into the pseudo three-dimensional structure of the title compound via N—H···O hydrogen bonding mechanisms instilled by the central amine units of the [H2dpa]2+ dications (Fig. 3). Geometric parameters for the hydrogen bonding interactions are given in Table 1.

The assignment to the noncentrosymmetric space group P1 is corroborated by chemically unreasonable aromatic ring bond distances (1.0 and 1.7 Å) and poor K scale factors distributions for a disordered model in the centrosymmetric P1 space group.

Experimental top

Phthalic acid was obtained commercially. 4,4'-dipyridylamine was prepared via a published procedure (Zapf et al., 1998). A mixture of phthalic acid (96 mg, 0.58 mmol) and 4,4'-dipyridylamine (50 mg, 0.29 mmol) was placed in 10.0 g water (550 mmol) in a 25 ml beaker. The solution was then heated to boiling. Large colourless blocks of the title compound were isolated after the solution was cooled to 298K and allowed to stand undisturbed for 3 d.

Refinement top

All H atoms bound to C atoms were placed in calculated positions, with C—H = 0.95 Å and refined in riding mode with Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C). All H atoms bound to O and N atoms were found via Fourier difference map and refined with Uiso = 1.2Ueq(N) or 1.2Ueq(O). The pyridinium N—H bonds were restrained with N—H = 0.89 (2) Å and the amine N—H bond was restrained with N—H = 0.85 (2) Å. The O—H distances were allowed to refine. In the absence of significant anomalous dispersion effects Friedel pairs were merged prior to the final refinement.

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.
