Bis(2-aminothiazolium) succinate succinic acid

H.-K. Fun, J. John, S. R. Jebas and T. Balasubramanian

Abstract top

In the title compound, 2C3H5N2S+·C4H4O42-·C4H6O4, the thiazolium ring is almost planar, with the maximum deviation from planarity being 0.0056 (8) Å for the C atom carrying the amine substituent. The N atom of the 2-aminothiazole molecule is protonated. Both the anion and the acid lie across inversion centres. The crystal packing is consolidated by intermolecular O-H...O, N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds. Molecules are stacked down the b axis.

Comment top

2-Aminothiazole derivatives have shown heribicidal, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and antiparasitic activities (Saarnivaara & Matilla, 1974). 2-Aminothiazole is listed as a thyroid inhibitor (Windholz, 2001). The orthorhombic form of 2-amino-1,3-thiazole has been reported (Caranoni & Reboul, 1982). Succinic acid is a dicarboxylic acid and is a precursor for many chemicals of industrial importance (Zeikus et al., 1999; Song & Lee, 2006). Succinic acid derivatives are mostly used in chemicals, food and pharmaceuticals (Sauer et al., 2008). The crystal structure of succinic acid has been reported (Gopalan et al., 2000; Leviel et al. 1981). Due to all these important properties, the title compound (I) has been synthesized and is reported here.

The asymmetric unit of (I) (Fig. 1) contains one molecule of protonated 2-aminothiazole, a half molecule of succinate and a half molecule of succinic acid. The anion and the acid lie across different inversion centres [symmetry codes (i) -x + 1, -y + 2, -z and (ii) -x + 2, -y + 2, -z respectively]. The thiazolium ring is planar with the maximum deviation from planarity being 0.0056 (8)Å for atom C3. The ring nitrogen of the 2-aminothiazole molecule is protonated thereby leading to a widening of the corresponding internal angle (C2–N1–C3) of the thiazolium ring to 113.99 (6)° [which is 109.4 (5)° in the unprotonated form of 2-aminothiazole] and an increase in the bond lengths of N1–C3 to 1.334 (9)Å and N1–C2 to 1.387 (9)Å [which are 1.298 (6)Å and 1.375 (6)Å respectively in its uncomplexed form] (Caranoni & Reboul, 1982). An increase in the C1–S1–C3 bond angle to 90.47 (3)° [which is 88.6 (3)° in the unprotonated form] and a decrease in the S1–C3–N1 bond angle to 111.38 (5)° [which is 114.9 (5)° in the uncomplexed form of 2-aminothiazole] (Caranoni & Reboul, 1982) are also observed.

The bond lengths and bond angles of the succinate and succinic acid are found to have normal values (Gopalan et al., 2000; Leviel & Auvert, 1981). The crystal packing is consolidated by O—H···O, N—H···O and C—H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 1) together with intermolecular [O—Oi = 2.5820 (8) Å; O—Nii-iii = 2.6868 (8) to 2.8297 (9) Å, short contacts [symmetry code: (i) x,-1 + y,z; (ii) 3/2 - x,1/2 + y,1/2 - z; (iii) x,1 + y,z]. Molecules are stacked down the b axis(Fig.2).

Experimental top

2- Aminothiazole (0.100 g, 1 mmol) and succinic acid (0.118 g, 1 mmol) were dissolved in ethanol (25 ml) in a 1:1 molar ratio. The clear brown solution obtained was refluxed for 6 h at a temperature of 323 K. Brown coloured crystals were harvested after two weeks on slow evaporation of the solvent.

Refinement top

All the hydrogen atoms were located from the Fourier map and were allowed to refine freely with isotropic displacement parameters.

Special details top

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cyrosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K.

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.
