A second monoclinic polymorph of N-(pyrazin-2-yl)aniline

Z. Abdullah and S. W. Ng

Abstract top

The two aromatic rings in the title compound, C10H9N3, are aligned at 23.4 (1)° and the bridging C-N-C angle is 128.9 (1)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N-H...N hydrogen bonds result in a chain motif, the repeat distance of which is half the b axial length of 8.8851 (3) Å.

Comment top

The cell dimensions of the reported monoclinic P21/c modification are: a = 10.0644 (3), b = 7.8423 (3), c = 10.8907 (3) Å; β = 116.439 (2)° (Wan Saffiee et al., 2008). The cell dimensions of the present modification (Scheme I, Fig. 1), after transformation to the standard P21/c setting, are: a = 8.2194 (3), b = 8.8851 (3), c = 12.5909 (4) Å, β = 114.525 (2)°.

Related literature top

In the P21/c modification, the aromatic rings are aligned at 15.2 (1)°, and the repeat distance of the helical chain is half the b-axial length of 7.8423 (3) Å; see: Wan Saffiee et al. (2008).

Experimental top

The P21/c modification of 2-pyrazinyl-N-aniline (0.10 g, 0.4 mmol), zinc acetate (0.09 g, 0.4 mmol) and water (18 ml) were heated in a 23-ml Teflon-lined Parr bomb at 403 K for 2 days. The bomb was cooled to room temperature at 5 K min-1. Several faint yellow prisms were picked out manually from the cool solution.

Refinement top

Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) fixed at 1.2U(C). The amino H-atom was located in a difference Fourier map, and was freely refined.
