The title compound, C10H6O8·2C3H7NO2, crystallizes as an adduct with the acid and amino acid mol­ecules in their neutral forms. The asymmetric unit contains one half of a centrosymmetric pyromellitic acid mol­ecule and one sarcosine mol­ecule. The sarcosine has the amine group protonated and the carboxyl group deprotonated, as is usual for amino acids (zwitterionic form). The pyromellitic acid mol­ecules retain the four carboxyl H atoms with the carboxyl groups rotated out of the ring plane [O—C—C—C torsion angles = 24.1 (3) and 61.6 (2)°]. There is a three-dimensional hydrogen-bond network linking the mol­ecules.

Comment top

1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (pyromellitic) is frequently chosen as a building block for crystal engineering due to its predictable properties and interesting supramolecular properties: It has provided three-dimensional porous networks (Yaghi et al., 1997), host–guest systems (Arora & Pedireddi, 2003), mixed metallic systems (Rochon & Massarweh, 2001) and complex magnetic behaviours (Kumagai et al., 2003). In an attempt to synthesize a low dimensional compound with copper, 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid and sarcosine (as an auxiliary ligand), we have obtained the title compound, (I).

The midpoint of the acidic molecule lies on an inversion centre thus these molecules exhibit a Ci symmetry (Fig. 1). All four carboxylic groups retain the hydrogen atom and rotate around the C—C bond. Torsion angles O1—C1—C2—C4 24.1 (3)° and C4—C3—C5—O4 61.6 (2)° show different degrees of rotation. Sarcosine (N-methyl-glycine) crystallizes in the zwitterionic form with the amine group protonated and the carboxylic group deprotonated. The molecule when viewed along the C6—C7 bond shows the oxygen atoms anti to each other and the nitrogen atom synperiplanar to O6 [O6—C6—C7—N1 4.9 (2)°]. There is an extensive three-dimensional newtork of hydrogen bonds linking the molecules. Sarcosine molecules are assembled in chains via the N1—H1A···O6 bond (Table 1), running along the b axis. The chains are all interconnected through the remaining H bonds, since each sarcosine molecule is H-bonded to four benzenetetracarboxylic neighbours, (Fig. 2).

Experimental top

0. 5 mmol of copper hydroxyfluoride were added to a 20 ml warmed ethanolic solution containing 1.5 mmol of 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid and 1.5 mmol of sarcosine. After a few weeks, transparent, colourless crystals could be isolated from the solution.

Refinement top

H atoms coordinates were located from a difference Fourier map and refined freely. The Uiso(H) were restrained to be 1.2Ueq(parent atom).

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.
