In the cation of the title salt, C19H19N4O2+·Cl−, the dihedral angles between the imidazole ring and the phenyl rings are 70.39 (8) and 86.26 (9)°. The chloride anion interacts with the cation through an N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bond. In the crystal, classical N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the cations into chains parallel to the b axis. Non-classical C—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds further connect the chains into a three-dimensional network.

The compound was prepared according to the literature method (Liao, Chan, Zeng et al. 2007). Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow diffusion of diethyl ether into a dichloromethane solution of the compound at room temperature.
The
of a related acetonitrile monosolvate was reported by us previously (Liao & Lee 2011). The compound is a good precursor for the preparation of transition metal complexes of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands. Nickel (Liao, Chan, Chang et al. 2007), palladium (Liao, Chan, Zeng et al. 2007) and silver (Liao et al. 2008) complexes with NHC ligands derived from the title compound were successfully prepared.The structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. The chloride anion forms a hydrogen bond with one of the amido H-atoms (Table 1). In the cation, the dihedral angles formed by the imidazole ring with the C5–C10 and C12–C17 phenyl rings are 70.39 (8) and 86.26 (9)°, respectively. Classical N—H···O hydrogen bonds link the cations into chains parallel to the b axis. Non-classical hydrogen bonds of the type C—H···Cl and C—H···O further connects the chains into a three-dimensional network (Fig. 2).

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 crystal structure of a related acetonitrile monosolvate was reported by us previously (Liao & Lee 2011). The compound is a good precursor for the preparation of transition metal complexes of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands. Nickel (Liao, Chan, Chang et al. 2007), palladium (Liao, Chan, Zeng et al. 2007) and silver (Liao et al. 2008) complexes with NHC ligands derived from the title compound were successfully prepared.
The structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. The chloride anion forms a hydrogen bond with one of the amido H-atoms (Table 1). In the cation, the dihedral angles formed by the imidazole ring with the C5–C10 and C12–C17 phenyl rings are 70.39 (8) and 86.26 (9)°, respectively. Classical N—H···O hydrogen bonds link the cations into chains parallel to the b axis. Non-classical hydrogen bonds of the type C—H···Cl and C—H···O further connects the chains into a three-dimensional network (Fig. 2).
