In the title salt, C5H6BrN2+·C5H7O4−, the 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.005 (3) Å. In the the protonated N atom and the 2-amino group of the cation are hydrogen bonded to the carboxylate O atoms of the anion via a pair of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an R22(8) ring motif. The ion pairs are further connected via O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to the bc plane. In the network, the hydrogen glutarate (4-carboxybutanoate) anions self-assemble through O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a supramolecular chain along the c axis.

A hot methanol solution (20 ml) of 2-amino-5-bromopyridine (86 mg, Aldrich) and glutaric acid (66 mg, Merck) were mixed and warmed over a heating magnetic stirrer hotplate for a few minutes. The resulting solution was allowed to cool slowly at room temperature and crystals of the title compound appeared after a few days.
Atoms H1N1, H1N2, H2N2 and H1O4 were located from a difference Fourier map and were refined freely [N—H= 0.83 (4)–0.94 (3) Å and O—H = 0.69 (5) Å]. The remaining hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically [C—H = 0.93 or 0.97 Å] and were refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). 1734 Friedel pairs were used to determine the absolute configuration.
Weak interactions, such as hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking, have attracted much interest as a result of their significance in chemistry and biology, especially in the field of crystal engineering (Moghimi et al., 2002; Aghabozorg et al., 2005). The design of highly specific solid-state compounds is of considerable significance in organic chemistry due to the important applications of these compounds in the development of new optical, magnetic and electronic systems (Lehn, 1992). The present work is part of a structural study of complexes of 2-amino pyridinium systems with hydrogen-bond donors and we report here the structure of 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium hydrogen glutarate, (I).
The
(Fig. 1) contains a 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation and a hydrogen glutarate anion. The 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.005 (3) Å for atom C5. In the 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation, a wider than normal angle [C6—N1—C2 = 123.8 (2)°] is subtented at the protonated N1 atom. The backbone conformation of the hydrogen glutarate anion can be described by the two torsion angles C8-C9-C10-C11 of -178.0 (2)° and C7-C8-C9-C10 of -71.7 (3)°. As evident from the torsion angles, the backbone is in a fully extended conformation (Saraswathi et al., 2001) of the two carboxyl groups, one is deprotonated while the other is not. The bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are within normal ranges.In the crystal packing, the protonated N1 atom and the 2-amino group (N2) is hydrogen-bonded to the carboxylate oxygen atoms (O1 and O2) via a pair of intermolecular N1—H1N1···O2 and N2–H1N2···O1 hydrogen bonds forming a ring motif R22(8) (Bernstein et al., 1995). The ion pairs are further connected via N2—H2N2···O1, O4—H1O4···O2 and C6—H6A···O3 (Table 1) hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to the bc-plane (Fig. 2). The hydrogen glutarate anions self-assemble through O4—H1O4···O2 hydrogen bonds, forming one-dimensional supramolecular chains along the c-axis (Fig. 3). Furthermore, the ion pairs are stacked down along the a-axis, forming a three-dimensional network as shown in Fig. 4.

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'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 > 2σ(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. |

Weak interactions, such as hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking, have attracted much interest as a result of their significance in chemistry and biology, especially in the field of crystal engineering (Moghimi et al., 2002; Aghabozorg et al., 2005). The design of highly specific solid-state compounds is of considerable significance in organic chemistry due to the important applications of these compounds in the development of new optical, magnetic and electronic systems (Lehn, 1992). The present work is part of a structural study of complexes of 2-amino pyridinium systems with hydrogen-bond donors and we report here the structure of 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium hydrogen glutarate, (I).
The asymmetric unit (Fig. 1) contains a 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation and a hydrogen glutarate anion. The 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.005 (3) Å for atom C5. In the 2-amino-5-bromopyridinium cation, a wider than normal angle [C6—N1—C2 = 123.8 (2)°] is subtented at the protonated N1 atom. The backbone conformation of the hydrogen glutarate anion can be described by the two torsion angles C8-C9-C10-C11 of -178.0 (2)° and C7-C8-C9-C10 of -71.7 (3)°. As evident from the torsion angles, the backbone is in a fully extended conformation (Saraswathi et al., 2001) of the two carboxyl groups, one is deprotonated while the other is not. The bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are within normal ranges.
In the crystal packing, the protonated N1 atom and the 2-amino group (N2) is hydrogen-bonded to the carboxylate oxygen atoms (O1 and O2) via a pair of intermolecular N1—H1N1···O2 and N2–H1N2···O1 hydrogen bonds forming a ring motif R22(8) (Bernstein et al., 1995). The ion pairs are further connected via N2—H2N2···O1, O4—H1O4···O2 and C6—H6A···O3 (Table 1) hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to the bc-plane (Fig. 2). The hydrogen glutarate anions self-assemble through O4—H1O4···O2 hydrogen bonds, forming one-dimensional supramolecular chains along the c-axis (Fig. 3). Furthermore, the ion pairs are stacked down along the a-axis, forming a three-dimensional network as shown in Fig. 4.
