In the title dihydrate salt, 2C12H24N+·SO42−·2H2O, the cation possesses twofold rotational symmetry, with the N atom situated on the twofold axis. The sulfate anion has fourfold roto-inversion symmetry, with the S atom located on the -4 axis. In the crystal, the components are linked via ammonium–sulfate N—H⋯O and water–sulfate O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

A number of sulfato complexes have been synthesized and characterized in order to study the behaviour of the sulfate anion as a ligand (Hathaway, 1973). The triammonium hydrogen disulfate salt has been prepared by the reaction of ammonia with sulfuric acid (Suzuki & Makita, 1978). In our laboratory, previous work on the behaviour of the sulfate ion has been studied especially in relation to tin(IV) complexes (Diassé-Sarr et al., 1997; Diallo et al., 2010; Diop et al., 2012). In the present work, we prepared the title salt by the reaction of aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid and dicyclohexylamine, and we describe herein its crystal structure.

The molecular structure of the title salt is illustrated in Fig. 1. The dicyclohexylammonium cation possesses two-fold rotational symmetry, with atom N1 situated on the two-fold axis. The sulfate cation has fourfold rotary inversion symmetry with atom S1 located on the 4.

In the crystal, the various units are linked via N—H···O(sulfate) and O—H(water)···O(sulfate) hydrogen bonds forming a three-dimensional network (Table 1 and Fig. 2).

Experimental top

The title compound was obtained by reacting aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid with dicyclohexylamine in a 1:1 molar ratio in water. The solution was heated for 2 h, stirred for ca 8 h and then filtered. The filtrate was allowed to evaporation in a drying cupboard at 333 K, and yielded colourless block-like crystals of the title salt suitable for an X-ray diffraction analysis.

Refinement top

The NH2 and water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map. The NH2 H atom (the N atom is located on a two-fold axis) was freely refined while the water H atom (the O atom is located on the two-fold axis) was refined with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The C-bound H atoms were included in calculated positions and treated as riding atoms: C—H = 0.95 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

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.
