4-[(2'-Cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]morpholin-4-ium tetrafluoridoborate

Abstract top

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C18H19N2O+·BF4-, bifurcated N-H...(F,F) hydrogen bonds link the protonated 4'-morpholinemethylbiphenyl-2-carbonitrile cations and slightly distorted tetrafluoroborate anions. [pi]-[pi] interactions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.805 (3) Å] help to consolidate the packing. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings in the cation is 57.24 (11)°.

Comment top

The crystal structure of 4'-morpholinemethylbiphenyl-2-carbonitrile with nitrate is known (SiMa, 2010).

The asymmetric unit of the title compound is built up of one 4'-morpholinemethylbiphenyl-2-carbonitrile cation with the dihedral angle of 57.24 (11)° between two benzene rings and one tetrafluoroborate anion (Fig 1). The intermolecular N—H···F hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions to chains (Table 1). The ππ stacking interactions of adjacent cyanobenzene rings with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.805 (3)Å stabilize the crystal structure (Fig 2).

Experimental top

Tetrafluoroboric acid(10 mmol) was added dropwise under stirring to a solution of 4'-morpholinemethylbiphenyl-2-carbonitrile (10 mmol) ethanol solution. Water was added until all suspended substrates disappeared. Colorless single crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation from the solution at room temperature after 5 d, giving a yield of ca 78%.

Refinement top

Positional parameters of all the H atoms for C atoms were calculated geometrically and were allowed to ride on the C atoms to which they are bonded, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). The H atoms bonded to N atoms were found in a difference Fourier map and refined with restraints for N—H distances of 0.87 (2).

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.
