2-(Dihydroxymethyl)pyridinium chloride

H.-F. Qian and W. Huang

Abstract top

In the title compound, C6H8NO2+·Cl-, intermolecular O-H...Cl and N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds are observed in which each chloride anion links three adjacent cations into a hydrogen-bond network.

Comment top

The crystal structure of pyridin-4-ylmethanediol, namely the hydrated form of isonicotinaldehyde has been previously reported (Mantero et al., 2006). In this paper, we report the X-ray single-crystal structure of pyridin-2-ylmethanediol-1-ium chloride (I).

The molecular structure of (I) is illustrated in Fig. 1. The two hydroxyl groups lie at the same side of the aromatic ring. In the crystal packing, intermolecular O—H···Cl and N—H···Cl hydrogen bonding interactions are observed where every chloride anion links three adjacent molecules into a hydrogen-bond sustained network (Fig. 2).

Refinement top

The H1A atom bonded with atom O1 was located in the difference synthesis and were refined isotropically. The other H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and refined as riding, with C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å, N—H = 0.86 Å and O—H = 0.96 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C), Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N) and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).

Special details top

Experimental. The structure was solved by direct methods (Bruker, 2000) and successive difference Fourier syntheses.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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.
