The reaction of benzylammonium tetrafluoroborate and 18-crown-6 in a methanolic solution yields the title compound, C7H10N+·BF4−·C12H24O6O6, which displays a supramolecular structure. The –NH3+ substituent of the benzylammonium cation forms a 1:1 supramolecular rotator–stator structure by N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions.

C7H10N+BF4– (2 mmol, 0.388 g) and 18-crown-6 (2 mmol, 0.528 g) were dissolved in 15 ml methanol. The resulting precipitate was filtered. Two days later, single crystals suitable for X-ray
were obtained from slow evaporation of the remaining methanolic solution at 0°C (yield: 95%).All hydrogen atoms were calculated geometrically with C—H distances ranging from 0.93 to 0.97 Å and N—H = 0.90 Å.

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. |

There is currently a great deal of interest in crown ethers because of their ability to form non-covalent, H-bonding complexes with ammonium cations both in solid and in solution (Akutagawa et al., 2002; Kryatova et al. 2004). Not only the size of the crown ether, but also the nature of the ammonium cation (–NH4+, RNH3+, R2NH2+, etc) can influence both stoichiometry and stability of these host–guest complexes. The host molecules combine with the guest species by intermolecular interactions, and if the host molecule possesses some specific sites, it is easy to realise high selectivity in ion or molecular recognitions. 18-Crown-6 exhibits the highest affinity for ammonium cations RNH3+, mostly resulting in a 1:1 stoichiometry.
Dielectric permittivity of the title compound was tested to systematically investigate the ferroelectric phase transitions of new materials (Ye et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2009). The title compound has no dielectric anomaly with the value of 5 and 8 under 1M Hz in the temperature range from 80 to 433 K (m.p.> 453 K), suggesting that the compound should show no distinct phase transition occurring within the measured temperature range.
The title compound is composed of cationic [C7H10N(18-Crown-6)]+ and anionic [BF4]– ions in a 1:1 stoichiometry (Fig. 1). Supramolecular rotator-like structures are assembled between benzylammonium cations and 18-crown-6 molecules by N—H···O hydrogen-bonding. Intramolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonding lengths are within the usual range around 2.9 Å. No intermolecular hydrogen bond was observed.
The crown ether adopts a conformation in which the rings show some distortion from planarity, with torsion angles: O5—C8—C9—O3 = 64.5 (2) °; O2—C10—C13—O1 = 68.1 (2) °; C16—C17—O2—C10 = 176.0 (1) °; C10—C13—O1—C14 = 179.5 (1) ° and C8—C9—O3—C11 = 167.9 (1) °. C—N bonds of [C7H10N]+ are almost perpendicular to the mean plane formed by oxygen atoms of the crown ether. Boron shows a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination by four F– ions [range of cis-bond angles = 108.9 (1) – 110.2 (1) °; average distance (B—F) = 1.383 (2)–1.397 (2) Å].
