In the title solvated salt, C8H12N9+·ClO4−·CH3OH, the dihedral angle between the tetrazine and pyrazole rings is 26.05 (7)°. The two N atoms bonded to the 1,2,4,5-tetrazine ring deviate from the plane defined by its four N atoms by 0.234 (2) and 0.186 (2) Å. There is an intramolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond between the protonated guanidine fragment and one of the tetrazine N atoms. In the crystal, two cations and two perchlorate anions are connected via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into centrosymmetric assemblies. These assemblies are further linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (100) via bifurcated O—H⋯(N,N) hydrogen bonds formed with the bridging methanol molecules.

Methanol (100 ml), guanidinium nitrate (11.8 g,0.098 mol) and sodium methoxide (4.4 g 0.098 mol) were stirred for 45 minutes. 3,6-Bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (12.4 g, 46 mmol) was added in one portion and stirred at room temperature for 12 h. The dark red slurry, composed mainly of DGTz mixed with a small amount of GDPTz, was filtered and washed with amounts of copious water and transferred to a 500 ml beaker. The solids were suspended in water (200 ml) and 70% perchloric acid (32 ml) was added with stirring; the suspension slowly turned into an orange solution. Orange needles precipitate was gained after a few minutes of stirring. The slurry was heated to re-dissolve the precipitate and cooled to room temperature and then placed in the refrigerator for several hours. The orange needles were collected by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, the solid product was washed with ethanol and purified by recrystallization from methanol to give the pure saffron compound in 4.1% yield. Crystals were obtained from methanol, by slow evaporation at room temperature. Elemental analysis calculated for C9H16N9O5Cl: C 29.56, N 34.47, H 4.41%; found: C 29.19, N 34.10, H 4.60%.
H atoms were placed at calculated idealized positions and refined using a riding model, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.96 Å, N—H distance 0.86 Å, and O—H distance 0.82 Å.

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. |

Heterocycles with high nitrogen and low carbon content that are free of halogens possess desirable stability. Recently, considerable attention has been paid to 1,2,4,5-tetrazine heterocycles containing strained ring systems (Boger and Zhang, 1991; Chavez et al., 2004; Saikia et al., 2009). This makes them good candidates for energetic materials (propellants or explosives). Heteroatom substituted tetrazine derivatives such as 3,6-diguanidino-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (DGTz) (Chavez et al., 2004) and 3,6-bis(1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-ylamino)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (BTATz) (Saikia et al., 2009) are readily accessible from 3,6-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (BT). 3-Guanidyl-6-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (GDPTz) also is a derivative of BT and we report here the crystal structure of its perchlorate salt methanol monosolvate..
