In the title molecular salt, C7H11N2+·C13H9N2O3−, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings in the anion is 35.14 (8)°. In the crystal, centrosymmetrically related anions associate via hydroxyl–carboxylate O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a 24-membered {⋯OC3N2C4OH}2 synthon. The cations are associated with this dimeric unit via pyridinium–carboxylate N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Weak C—H⋯O links further consolidate the packing, generating layers.

Orange blocks of (I) were isolated from the co-crystallization of 1:1 molar equivalents of 2-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoic acid and p-dimethylpyridine in a methanol solution.
C-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C–H 0.95–0.98 Å) and were included in the
in the riding model approximation with Uiso(H) set to 1.2–1.5Ueq(C). A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups. The O– and N– bound H-atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined with O–H and N—H restraints of 0.840±0.001 Å and 0.88±0.001, respectively, and with Uiso(H) = nUeq(carrier atom); n = 1.5 for = O, and 1.2 for N.Data collection: CrystalClear (Rigaku/MSC, 2005); cell

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 motivation of our studies into co-crystal formation (Broker & Tiekink, 2007; Broker et al., 2008; Ellis et al., 2009) revolves around a desire to establish a hierarchy of hydrogen bonding interactions (Etter, 1990). Studies with 2-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoic acid reveal the formation of a co-crystal when co-crystallized with N,N'-bis(4-pyridylmethyl)oxamide (Arman et al., 2009) but a salt was formed with 1,2-(4-pyridyl)ethane (Corlette & Tiekink, 2009); see Zukerman-Schpector & Tiekink (2008) for a discussion on terminology.
In (I), proton transfer from the carboxylic acid group in 2-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoic acid to the pyridine-N1 atom has occurred during co-crystallization from a methanol solution containing stoichiometric amounts of the reagents, Figs 1 and 2. The NMe2 group in the cation is co-planar with the (N3, C14—C18) ring as seen in the C15–C14–N4–C19 torsion angle of -179.04 (17) °. By contrast, the 2-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)benzoate anion is non-planar with the dihedral angle formed between the (C1—C6) and (C8—C13) rings being 35.14 (8) °. There is a twist about the C2–N1 bond as seen in the C1–C2–N1–N2 torsion angle of -148.88 (15) °. Further, the carboxylate group is twisted out of the benzene ring to which it is connected: the C2–C1–C7–O1 torsion angle is -134.83 (17) °. The C7–O1 and C7–O2 bond distances of 1.259 (2) Å and 1.260 (2) Å are indistinguishable, consistent with deprotonation.
The crystal packing in (I) is dominated by O–H···O and N–H···O hydrogen bonding. Centrosymmetrically related anions associate by hydrogen bonds formed between the hydroxyl and O2-carboxylate groups. The association leads to the formation of a 24-membered {···OC3N2C4OH}2 synthon, Fig. 3. Two cations associate with the dimeric aggregate via pyridinium-N···O1-carboxylate hydrogen bonds, Fig. 3. The resulting four component tectons are linked into effectively flat 2-D arrays in the (100) plane via C–H···O contacts, Table 1 and Fig. 4. Links between layers comprise weaker C–H···O contacts, Table 1, and C–H···π interactions: C20–H20a···Cg(N3,C14—C18)i = 2.61 Å, C20···Cg(N2, C14—C18)i = 3.527 (3) Å, with an angle subtended at H20a = 155 °; i: 2 - x, 1 - y, -z.
