Bis[diamino(ethoxycarbonylamino)methylium] sulfate

Abstract top

In the molecule of the title compound, 2C4H10N3O2+·SO4-, the cations are planar (r.m.s. deviations = 0.0144 and 0.0236 Å) and oriented at a dihedral angle of 62.30 (4)°. Intramolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds result in the formation of two planar six-membered rings. The cations are linked to the sulfate ion through intermolecular C-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonds, forming an R22(8) ring motif. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

As part of our ongoing studies, we report herein the crystal structure of the title compound, (I).

The crystal structures of 1-carbamoylguanidinium methylphosphonate monohydrate, (II) (Brauer & Kottsieper, 2003) and methylguanidinium nitrate, (III) (Curtis & Pasternak, 1955) have been reported. In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles of the diamino(ethoxycarbonylamino)methylium (DEAM) moieties are within normal ranges. DEAM moieties (N1–N3/O5/O6/C1–C4) and (N4–N6/O7/O8/C5–C8) are planar with maximum deviations of 0.043 (2) and -0.322 (3) Å for N2 and N4 atoms, respectively, in which they are oriented at a dihedral angle of 62.30 (4)°. The intramolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds result in the formations of two planar six-membered rings: A (O5/N2/N3/C1/C2/H2A) and B (O7/N5/N6/C5/C6/H5A). The dihedral angle between them is A/B = 60.38 (3)°. The DEAM moieties are linked to the SO4 ion through the intramolecular C—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1), forming a R22(8) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995).

In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—H···O and C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into a three dimensional network (Fig. 2), in which they may be effective in the stabilization of the structure.

Experimental top

For the preparation of the title compound, 1-cyanoguanidine (2.1 g, 0.025 mol) was dissolved in water (50 ml), and then a few drops of H2SO4 were added. The resulting mixture was refluxed for 2–3 h, and cooled to room temperature. The excess of ethanol was added, and then refluxed for 2–3 h. It was filtered through alumina. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and kept for crystallization. Recrystallization was carried out from ethanol/hexane (9:1) mixture in 5 d.

Special details top

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

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.
