(Received 19 July 2012; accepted 26 July 2012; online 1 August 2012)

In the structure of the title salt C12H11N2S+·I, the methyl­sulfanyl group of the cation is nearly coplanar with the perimidine rings, as indicated by the C—S—C—N torsion angles of 2.9 (5) and −177.2 (3)°, respectively. The (S)C—N bond lengths in the heterocyclic ring are approximately equal [1.325 (5) and 1.326 (6) Å] suggesting a degree of delocalization. In the crystal, cations and anions are linked via two discrete N—H⋯I hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the b axis.

Comment top

The title compound is used in the synthesis of some potentially active antitumor agents (Herbert et al., 1987) and heterocyclic compounds (Liu & Chen, 1984). So far, the structure of this compound and its neutral form has been studied using 13C and 1H NMR spectroscopy (Woodgate et al., 1988). Herein, the crystal structure of this salt is investigated using X-ray crystallography.

In the structure of the 2-methylsulfanylperimidinium cation, the methylsulfanyl group is nearly coplanar with perimidine rings [the torsion angles N1—C2—S—C1 and N2—C2—S—C1 are 2.9 (5)° and -177.2 (3)°, respectively]. Because of conjugation between the lone pair electrons of the S atom and the amidinum moiety (HN—C=NH+) in the cation, the C2—S bond length [1.730 (5) Å] is shorter than C1—S [1.789 (5) Å]. Also, like other amidinium cations (Molčanov et al., 2012; Wang, 2012; Tiritiris & Kantlehner, 2012), the C—N bond lengths in the cation are approximately equal [the bond lengths of C2—N1 and C2—N2 are 1.325 (5) Å and 1.325 (6) Å, respectively].

In the crystal lattice, the cations and anions are linked together via two different N—H···I hydrogen bonds, in which every iodide anion act as a bridge between two 2-methylsulfanylperimidinium cations.

Experimental top

The title salt was prepared by a literature method (Liu & Chen, 1984; Herbert et al., 1987). Suitable single crystals for X-ray analysis were obtained from ethanol solution at room temperature.

Refinement top

All hydrogen atoms bound to carbon were positioned geometrically with C—H distances = 0.93–0.96 Å and included in a riding model approximation with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5Ueq(C). The N–H hydrogen atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined freely.

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.
