In the title compound, 1.5C18H16N+·0.25C36H32N22+·2C6H6NO3S−·2H2O, the monocation exists in the E configuration with respect to the ethenyl C=C double bond and is almost planar, the dihedral angles between the pyridinium and the fused six-membered rings being 3.1 (7) and 3.8 (8)°. The dication lies about an inversion centre. In the crystal, the dication occupies almost the same site occupied by monocations at (x, y, z) and (−x, 1 − y, 1 − z). The anions and water molecules are linked into a chain along the a axis by O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The structure is further stabilized by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions between pyridinium and benzene rings, with centroid–centroid distances in the range 3.516 (9)–3.553 (8) Å. The crystal is a twin with TWIN 0 0 0 0 1 0 1. The monocation and dication are disordered with fractional site occupancy ratio of 0.75:0.25.

Silver(I) 4-aminobenzenesulfonate (compound A) was prepared by mixing a solution of sulfanilic acid (0.12 g, 0.71 mmol) in hot methanol (50 ml) with a solution of sodium hydroxide (0.03 g, 0.71 mmol) in methanol (30 ml), followed by addition of a solution of silver nitrate (0.12 g, 0.71 mmol) in methanol (30 ml). A colourless solution together with black solid of AgI was obtained which was then filtered. The white solid of compound A was collected after allowing the filtrate to stand in air for a few days. (E)-1-Methyl-4-[2-(1-naphthyl)vinyl]pyridinium iodide (compound B) was prepared by the previous method (Chantrapromma et al., 2009). The yellow solid of compound B (0.27 g, 0.71 mmol) was mixed with compound A (0.20 g, 0.71 mmol) in methanol (100 ml) and stirred for 30 minutes. The precipitate of silver iodide which formed was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated to give a yellow solid product. The yellow solid was repeatedly recrystallized for three times by dissolving the yellow solid in methanol and the solution was heated at 323 K to get a clear solution. The [2+2]
of the (E)-1-methyl-4-[2-(1-naphthyl)vinyl]pyridinium occured upon heating. Green needle-shaped single crystals of the title compound suitable for x-ray were obtained from a methanol solution by slow evaporation at room temperature over a month (m.p. 513-514 K).The fractional occupancies of the monocation and dication were initially refined to 0.746 (8) and 0.254 (2), respectively, and later for charge-balance they were fixed at 0.75 and 0.25. In the dication, the Uij components of all atoms were restrained to approximate isotropic behaviour and atoms closer than 1.7 Å were restrained to have the same Uij components. Same Uij parameters were used for atoms C2 and C2A and also for C3 and C3A. In the dication, the naphthalene and pyridinium rings were restrained to be planar. All H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with N-H = 0.86 Å and C-H = 0.93-0.98 Å. The Uiso values were constrained to be 1.5Ueq of the
for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq(C) for the remaining H atoms. The highest residual electron density peak is located at 1.18 Å from C12 and the deepest hole is located at 0.74 Å from S1. The crystal is a twin with TWIN -1 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 and BASF = 0.036 (1).Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2005); cell

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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 important requirement of NLO material is that the molecules have to align in noncentrosymmetric space group in the crystal (Williams, 1984). So the X-ray structure determination is a very important procedure to find out whether the compound is NLO active. During the course of our NLO research, we have previously reported crystal structures of (E)-1-methyl-4-[2-(2-naphthyl)vinyl]pyridinium iodide (I) (Fun et al., 2009) and (E)-1-methyl-4-[2-(1-naphthyl)vinyl]pyridinium 4-bromobenzenesulfonate (II) (Chantrapromma et al., 2009). These compounds were prepared by extending conjugated π-system which is a popular strategy to design NLO materials. In order to study the relation and effect of anions to the NLO properties, we attempted to synthesize (E)-1-methyl-4-[2-(2-naphthyl)vinyl]pyridinium 4-aminobenzenesulfonate (III) by replacing the iodide anion in (I) by 4-aminobenzenesulfonate. However, we got a co-crystal of the [2+2] cycloaddition product of (E)-1-methyl-4-[2-(2-naphthyl)vinyl]pyridinium with (III). The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P21/c, indicating that the second-order NLO properties are not present.
Fig. 1 shows the molecular structure of the title compound, which consists of one and a half C18H16N+ cation, one-quarter of the C36C32N22+ dication, two C6H6NO3S- anions and two water molecules. The monocation exists in the E configuration with respect to the C11═C12 double bond (C10—C11—C12—C13 = -179.9 (10)°) and is almost planar with dihedral angles between the pyridinium and C1–C6 and C1/C6–C10 rings being 3.1 (7) and 3.8 (8)°, respectively. The dication lies on an inversion center. The dihedral angle between the pyridinium and two aromatic C1A–C6A and C1A/C6A–C10A rings being 13 (2) and 14 (2)°, respectively, with the C10A–C11A–C12A–C13A torsion angle being -115 (3)°. Bond lengths are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and comparable with those in related structures (Chantrapromma et al., 2009; Fun et al., 2009).
In the crystal structure, the anions and water molecules are linked into a chain along the a axis by O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig.2). The structure is further stabilized by C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) and π–π interactions between pyridinium and benzene rings [Cg1···Cg2v = 3.553 (8) Å, Cg1···Cg2vi = 3.530 (8) Å, Cg1···Cg3v = 3.550 (9) Å and Cg1···Cg3vi = 3.516 (9) Å; Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are centroids of the N1/C13-C17, C1-C6 and C1/C6-C10 rings, respectively. Symmetry code: (v) -x, 1-y, 1-z; (vi) 1-x, 1-y, 1-z].
