In the title compound, [(Ph3P)2N]+·[Cl-H-Cl]− or C36H30NP2+·Cl2H−, the H atom of the [Cl—H—Cl]− anion and the N atom of the [(Ph3P)2N]+ cation are located on a twofold axis, yielding overall symmetry 2 for both the cation and the anion. The central P—N—P angle [144.12 (13)°] of the cation is in the expected range and indicates only weak cation–anion inter­actions. The almost linear [Cl—H—Cl]− anion is a rare example of a symmetric hydrogen bridge in a hydrogen dichloride anion. The Cl⋯Cl distance and two equal Cl—H bonds are typical of such a symmetric hydrogen dichloride anion.

Comment top

The Cambridge Structural Database (Allen, 2002) currently contains more than 1200 structures containing the [(Ph3P)2N]+ cation ([(Ph3P)2N]+ = [PNP]+). Usually this cation is partnered by a bulky anion, while crystal structures containing small anions and especially halides are rare. The crystal structures of some solvate-free halides, [(Ph3P)2N]I (Beckett et al., 2010) and [(Ph3P)2N]Cl (Knapp & Uzun, 2010a), and the acetontrile solvate [(Ph3P)2N]Br.CH3CN (Knapp & Uzun, 2010b), were published only very recently.

Bis(triphenyl-λ5-phosphanylidene)ammonium chloride [(Ph3P)2N]Cl was synthesized according to a published method (Ruff et al., 1974). Solvate-free single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction of the title compound were obtained as a by-product by layering a CH3CN solution with diethyl ether. The H atom of the [Cl—H—Cl]- anion and the N atom of the [(Ph3P)2N]+ cation are located on a twofold axis, yielding overall symmetry 2 for the cation. The central P—N—P angle [144.12 (13)°] and the P—N [1.5762 (7) Å] and P—C distances [1.7940 (16)–1.8028 (15) Å] are in the expected range for the [(Ph3P)2N]+ cation (Lewis & Dance, 2000).

The number of structurally characterized hydrogen dichloride anions is still limited. Often disorder or low crystal quality does not allow to establish unequivically the position of the H atom. The Cl···Cl distances in all hydrogen dichloride anions deviate only slightly from an averaged distance of 3.10 Å. The anion in the title compound contains a symmetric hydrogen bridge with H—Cl distances of 1.56 (1) Å and a Cl···Cl distance of 3.1045 (9) Å. The anion is almost linear and a Cl—H—Cl angle of 173 (3)° is observed. A very similar hydrogen dichloride anion was found in the the crystal structure of [K(18 C-6)][Cl—H—Cl], where H—Cl is 1.56 Å and Cl···Cl 3.117 (1) Å (Atwood et al., 1990).

Experimental top

Single crystals of the title compound, suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis, were obtained as a by-product by layering a CH3CN solution of [(Ph3P)2N]Cl with diethyl ether.

Refinement top

The carbon-bonded hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model. The same Uiso value was used for all H atoms, which refined to 0.0226 (13) Å2. The coordinates for the hydrogen atom in the [Cl—H—Cl]- anion were taken from the Fourier map and the atom was refined isotropically.

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.
