Nicotinium hydrogen sulfate

L.-Z. Chen

Abstract top

The structure of title compound, C6H6NO2+·HSO4-, comprises discrete ions which are interconected by N-H...O and O-H...O hydrogen bonds, leading to a neutral one-dimensional network along [001]. These hydrogen bonds appear to complement the Coulombic interaction and help to stabilize the structure further.

Comment top

Recently, much attention has been devoted to simple molecular–ionic crystals containing organic cations and acid radicals (1:1molar ratio) due to the tunability of their special structural features and their interesting physical properties. (e.g. Czupiński et al., 2002; Katrusiak & Szafrański, 1999; Katrusiak & Szafrański, 2006) the crystal structure of dinicotinium sulfate compound have been reported (Athimoolam et al., 2005). In our laboratory, a compound containing protoned nicotinic acid and HSO4- anions has been synthesized, its crystal structure is reported herein.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C6H6NO2+.HSO4-, (Fig.1) consists of protoned nicotinic acid and HSO4- anions, the nicotinium cation is essentially planar. The protonation of the N site of the pyridine ring is demonstrated by the C—N bond distances and C—N—C bond angle. Usually, protonation on the aromatic ring leads to a slightly larger C—N—C bond angle (122.9 (2)°). Cations and anions are placed alternately and linked through intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2 and Table 1). The structure of title compound C6H6NO2+.HSO4-, comprises discrete ions which are placed alternately and interconected by N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds leading to a neutral one-dimensional network along [001] direction. These hydrogen bonds appear to complement the Coulombic interaction and help to stabilize the structure further.

Experimental top

Nicotinic acid (10 mmol) and 10% aqueous H2SO4 in a molar ratio of 1:1 were mixed and dissolved in water by heating to 323 K forming a clear solution. The reaction mixture was cooled slowly to room temperature, crystals of the title compound were formed, collected and washed with dilute aqueous H2SO4.

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in calculated positions, with C—H = 0.93 Å, O—H = 0.85 Å and N—H = 0.86 Å, and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N) and 1.5Ueq(O).

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.
