The title compound, (CH6N3)[H2AsO4], contains a network of guanidinium cations and dihydrogenarsenate anions. The component species interact by way of cation-to-anion N—H⋯O and anion-to-anion O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, the latter leading to infinite sheets of [H2AsO4]− anions.
Comment
The title compound, (I), was prepared as part of ongoing studies of hydrogen-bonding interactions in molecular salts (Wilkinson & Harrison, 2004).
The [H2AsO4]− anion in (I) shows its normal tetrahedral geometry (Fig. 1) about As [mean As—O = 1.684 (2) Å], with the usual distinction between protonated and unprotonated As—O bond lengths (Wilkinson & Harrison, 2004); see Table 1. The three C—N bond lengths in the propeller-shaped (CH6N3)+ cation are similar (Table 1), indicating that the usual model of electron delocalization in this species, leading to a C—N bond order of 1.33, is applicable here.
As well as Coulombic forces, the component species in (I) interact by means of a network of cation-to-anion N—H⋯O and anion-to-anion O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, as detailed in Table 2. All the guanidinium atoms participate in hydrogen bonds (one of which, via H8, is bifurcated with notably longer H⋯O separations than the others), such that the (CH6N3)+ cation makes N—H⋯O links to five adjacent [H2AsO4]− tetrahedra as shown in Fig. 2. For the simple N—H⋯O bonds, the mean H⋯O distance = 2.18 Å, mean N⋯O = 2.951 (3) Å, and the mean N—H⋯O angle is 150°.
The [H2AsO4]− units are linked into infinite sheets (Fig. 3) by way of the O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The O3—H1⋯O1i interaction (see Table 2 for symmetry codes) results in inversion-symmetry-generated dimeric pairs of [H2AsO4]− tetrahedra linked by a double (i.e. O—H⋯O + O⋯H—O) hydrogen bond. The O4—H2⋯O2ii bond links the dimers into an infinite sheet (Fig. 3) propagating in (100). The As⋯Asi and As⋯Asii separations are 4.0148 (3) and 5.0190 (3) Å, respectively. If the topological connectivity of the As atoms is considered, a 63 sheet (O′Keeffe & Hyde, 1996) arises, i.e. every As node participates in three polyhedral six-ring loops.
The packing for (I) (Fig. 4) results in alternating organic and inorganic layers with respect to the a axis direction. The structure of (I) is distinct from other ammonium hydrogenarsenate salts where isolated pairs of tetrahedra (Todd & Harrison, 2005) or various kinds of polymeric chains (Wilkinson & Harrison, 2004) occur.
Experimental
An aqueous guanidine solution (0.5 M, 10 ml) was added to an H3AsO4 solution (0.5 M, 10 ml) to give a clear solution. A mass of chunks and blocks of (I) grew as the water evaporated over the course of a few days.

The O-bound H atoms were found in difference maps and allowed for as riding in their as-found relative positions with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(O). The N-bound H atoms were included in the riding model approximation, with N—H = 0.86 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).

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. |

The title compound, (I), was prepared as part of on-going studies of hydrogen-bonding interactions in molecular salts (Wilkinson & Harrison, 2004).
The [H2AsO4]− moiety in (I) shows its normal tetrahedral geometry, Fig. 1, about As [mean As—O = 1.684 (2) Å], with the usual distinction between protonated and un-protonated As—O bond lengths (Wilkinson & Harrison, 2004); see Table 1. The three C—N bond lengths in the propeller-shaped [CH6N3]+ entity are similar (Table 1), indicating that the usual model of electron delocalization in this species leading to a C—N bond order of 1.33 is applicable here.
As well as Coulombic forces, the component species in (I) interact by means of a network of cation-to-anion N—H···O and anion-to-anion O—H···O H-bonds, as detailed in Table 2. A l l the guanidinium-H atoms participate in hydrogen bonds (one of which, via H8, is bifurcated with notably longer H···O separations than the others), such that the [CH6N3]+ moiety makes N—H···O links to five adjacent [H2AsO4]− tetrahedra as shown in Fig. 2. For the simple N—H···O bonds, the mean H···O distance = 2.18 Å, mean N···O = 2.951 (3) Å, and the mean N—H···O angle is 150°.
The [H2AsO4]− units are linked into infinte sheets (Fig. 3) by way of the O—H···O hydrogen bonds. The O3—H1···O1i interaction (see Table 2 for symmetry codes) results in inversion-symmetry-generated dimeric pairs of [H2AsO4]− tetrahedra linked by a double (i.e. O—H···O + O···H—O) hydrogen bond. The O4—H2···O2ii bond links the dimers into an infinte sheet (Fig. 3) propagating in (100). The As···Asi and As···Asii separations are 4.0148 (3) and 5.0190 (3) Å, respectively. If the topological connectivity of the As atoms is considered, a 63 sheet (O'Keeffe & Hyde, 1996) arises, i.e. every As node participates in three polyhedral six-ring loops.
The unit-cell packing for (I) (Fig. 4) results in alternating organic and inorganic layers with respect to the a axis direction. The structure of (I) is distinct from other ammonium hydrogenarsenate salts where isolated pairs of tetrahedra (Todd & Harrison, 2005) or various kinds of polymeric chains (Wilkinson & Harrison, 2004) occur.
