In the zwitterionic mol­ecule of the title compound, C10H7N3O4·H2O, one carboxyl group is deprotonated and the pyridine N atom is protonated. The pyridinium and imidazole rings form a dihedral angle of 5.23 (1)°. An intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯O, O—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the zwitterions and water mol­ecules into sheets parallel to (102).

Supporting information


Comment top

Imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid derivatives are recognized as efficient N,O-donors exhibiting diverse modes of coordination (Sun et al., 2006; Chen, 2008; Liu et al., 2009). In order to search for new derivatives of imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid, the title compound (I) was synthesized and its crystal structure is reported here.

In (I) (Fig. 1), all bond lengths and angles are normal (Allen et al., 1987). The C4-containing carboxyl group is deprotonated and forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the neighboring C1-containing carboxyl group. The dihedral angle formed by imidazole ring and pyridinium ring is 5.23 (1) °. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—H···O, O—H···N and O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into sheets parallel to (102) plane (Fig. 2). The short axis a of 3.7342 (18) Å suggests a presence of π-π interactions between the rings from the neighbouring sheets, which consolidate further the crystal packing.

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized according to the method reported in the literature (Lebedev et al., 2007). Yellow single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by slow evaporation of an acetonitrile solution of the compound.

Refinement top

H atoms bonded to N and O atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically. C-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 Å, and refined as riding, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Uiso(C).

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.
