In the title hydrated molecular salt, C7H11N2+·Cl−·2H2O, the pyridine N atom of the 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyridine molecule is protonated. The cation is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.006 (2) Å. In the crystal, the components are linked by N—H⋯O, N—H⋯Cl and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, thereby forming sheets lying parallel to (100). The is further stabilized by aromatic π–π stacking interactions between the pyridinium rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.4789 (9) Å].

In a round bottom flask, 25ml of tetrahydrofuran (THF) was mixed with 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyridine (0.01 mol, 1.3 g) with stirring. Drops of benzoyl chloride (0.01 mol, 1.0 g) dissolved in THF was then added. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 30 min. The precipitate formed was washed with THF. The precipitate was then dissolved in methanol at room temperature. After few days, colorless plates of (I) were formed by slow evaporation.
Atoms H1WA, H2WA, H1WB and H2WB were located from a difference Fourier maps and refined freely [O–H = 0.78 (2)–0.84 (3) Å]. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically [N–H = 0.86 Å and C–H = 0.96 Å] and were refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq(C). A rotating group model was applied to the methyl groups.
2-Aminopyridine and its derivatives play an important role in heterocyclic chemistry (Katritzky et al., 1996). The use of pyridine derivatives as templating agents for the self-assembly of organic–inorganic supramolecular materials has been widely studied (Matsumoto, 2003; Desiraju, 2001; Bond & Parsons, 2002). In order to further study hydrogen bonding interactions in these systems, the synthesis and structure of the title salt (I) is presented here.
The
of the title compound, (I), contains a 2-amino-4,6- dimethylpyridinium cation, a chloride anion and two water molecules as shown in Fig. 1. The cation (N1/C1–C5) is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.006 (2) Å for atom C5. In the 2-amino-4,6- dimethylpyridinium cation, a wider than normal angle [123.22 (12)°] is subtended at the protonated N1 atom.In the π–π- interactions between the pyridinium (Cg1; N1/C1–C5) rings [Cg1···Cg1 = 3.4789 (9) Å; 1-x, 1-y, 1-z].
(Fig. 2), the ion pais and water molecules are linked via O2W—H1WA···Cl1, O2W—H2WA···Cl1, O1W—H1WA···Cl1, O1W—H2WA···Cl1, N1—H1N1···O2W, N2—H2N1···Cl1 and N2—H2N2···O1W hydrogen bonds (Table 1) forming two-dimensional networks parallel to the (100)-plane.

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. |

2-Aminopyridine and its derivatives play an important role in heterocyclic chemistry (Katritzky et al., 1996). The use of pyridine derivatives as templating agents for the self-assembly of organic–inorganic supramolecular materials has been widely studied (Matsumoto, 2003; Desiraju, 2001; Bond & Parsons, 2002). In order to further study hydrogen bonding interactions in these systems, the synthesis and structure of the title salt (I) is presented here.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (I), contains a 2-amino-4,6- dimethylpyridinium cation, a chloride anion and two water molecules as shown in Fig. 1. The cation (N1/C1–C5) is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.006 (2) Å for atom C5. In the 2-amino-4,6- dimethylpyridinium cation, a wider than normal angle [123.22 (12)°] is subtended at the protonated N1 atom.
In the crystal structure, (Fig. 2), the ion pais and water molecules are linked via O2W—H1WA···Cl1, O2W—H2WA···Cl1, O1W—H1WA···Cl1, O1W—H2WA···Cl1, N1—H1N1···O2W, N2—H2N1···Cl1 and N2—H2N2···O1W hydrogen bonds (Table 1) forming two-dimensional networks parallel to the (100)-plane. The crystal structure is further stabilized by π–π- interactions between the pyridinium (Cg1; N1/C1–C5) rings [Cg1···Cg1 = 3.4789 (9) Å; 1-x, 1-y, 1-z].
