(Received 3 October 2012; accepted 17 October 2012; online 24 October 2012)

In the 2-amino­benzoate anion of the title salt, C6H9N2+·C7H6NO2−, an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond is observed. The dihedral angle between the ring and the CO2 group is 8.41 (13)°. In the crystal, the protonated N atom and the 2-amino group of the cation are hydrogen bonded to the carboxyl­ate O atoms via a pair of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an R22(8) ring motif. The ion pairs are further connected via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a donor–donor–acceptor–acceptor (DDAA) array of quadruple hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure also features a weak N—H⋯O hydrogen bond and a C—H⋯π inter­action, resulting in a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

Pyridine and its derivatives play an important role in heterocyclic chemistry (Pozharski et al., 1997; Katritzky et al., 1996). The are often involved in hydrogen-bond interactions (Jeffrey, 1997; Scheiner, 1997). The crystal structures of 2-amino-5-methylpyridine (Nahringbauer & Kvick, 1977), 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium 4-hydroxybenzoate (Hemamalini & Fun, 2010a), 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium 3-aminobenzoate (Hemamalini & Fun, 2010b) and 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium benzoate (Bis & Zaworotko, 2005) have been reported. In order to study some interesting hydrogen bonding interactions, the synthesis and structure of the title compound, (I), is presented here.

The asymmetric unit (Fig. 1) contains one 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium cation and one 2-aminobenzoate anion. In the 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium cation, a wider than normal angle [C1—N1—C5 = 122.86 (13)°] is subtended at the protonated N1 atom. The 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium cation is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.001 (1) Å for atom C2. The bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are normal. In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), the protonated N1 atom and the 2-amino group (N2) are hydrogen-bonded to the carboxylate oxygen atoms (O1 and O2) via a pair of intermolecular N1—H4···O2iii and N2—H5···O1iii hydrogen bonds (symmetry code in Table 1), forming an R22(8) (Bernstein et al., 1995) ring motif. These motifs are centrosymmetrically paired via N2—H1···O1i hydrogen bonds (symmetry code in Table 1), forming a complementary donor-donor-acceptor-acceptor (DDAA) array (Baskar Raj et al., 2003). These arrays are further connected via N3—H2···O1ii hydrogen bonds (symmetry code in Table 1), resulting a three-dimensional network. There is a typical intramolecular N3—H3···O2 hydrogen bond in the 2-aminobenzoate anion, (graph-set notation S6). The crystal structure is further stabilized by a weak C—H···π interaction (Table 1) involving the C7–C12 (centroid Cg1) ring.

Experimental top

Hot methanol solutions (20 ml) of 2-amino-5-methylpyridine (54 mg, Aldrich) and 2-aminobenzoic acid (34 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 (I) appeared after a few days.

Refinement top

N-bound H Atoms were located in a difference Fourier maps and refined freely [refined N—H distances 0.959 (18), 0.926 (18), 0.933 (17), 0.897 (17) and 0.923 (18) Å]. The remaining hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.95–0.98 Å) and were refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methyl C). A rotating group model was used for the methyl group. In the final refinement, eleven outliers were omitted (-4 5 5, -1 4 5, 0 6 6, 4 6 3, 1 6 5, 0 1 1, 3 6 4, 1 4 4, -4 6 7, -1 6 6 and -3 6 7).

Special details top

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K.

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.
