In the title salt, C6H9ClN3+·C6H3O4S−, the cations and anions are linked via O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming R66(37) ring motifs that are interconnected with each other, producing sheets. Separate parallel inversion-related sheets are linked through N—H⋯N and π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5414 (13) Å], forming double layers parallel to (101). Weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds, as well as C—H⋯π interactions, connect the double layers into a three-dimensional network.
Keywords: crystal structure; crystal salts; hydrogen-bonding patterns; base-pairing; π–π stacking; C—H⋯π interactions.

1. Chemical context
In crystal engineering, non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding, play a key role in molecular recognition processes (Desiraju, 1989). Pyrimidine derivatives have gained considerable importance because of their remarkable biological properties, for example as anti-fungal, antiviral, anticancer and anti-allergenic agents (Ding et al., 2004). Thiophenecarboxylic acid and its derivatives have attracted attention because of their wide range of pharmacological properties and numerous applications, such as the preparation of DNA indicators, single-molecule magnets, materials and the treatment of osteoporosis as inhibitors of bone resorption in the tissue culture (Bharti et al., 2003; Taş et al., 2014; Boulsourani et al., 2011). The present study investigates the hydrogen-bonding patterns in 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyrimidinium thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylate (I).
2. Structural commentary
The 6H9ClN3+·C6H3O4S−, (I), contains one 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyrimidinium cation and one thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylate anion (Fig. 1). Protonation of the pyrimidine occurs at atom N1, leading to a C2B—N1B—C6B angle of 122.5 (2)° which an increase of ca 3.8° compared to the C2B—N3B—C4B angle 118.7 (2)° involving the unprotonated N3 atom.
of C3. Supramolecular features
The carboxylate group of the thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylate anion interacts with the protonated N1 atom of the pyrimidinium moiety with a single point heterosynthon via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Table 1). In addition, the components are connected through O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) to form an R66(37) ring graph set motif. This motif includes anions connected by O—H.·O hydrogen bonds along [10] and involves the cations along [010] to form a 2D sheet (Fig. 2). Two separate 2D sheets (which are indicated in red and yellow in Fig. 3) are interconnected by a self-complementary base pair between the pyrimidinium moiety through N—H⋯N hydrogen bond interactions with an R22(8) ring graph set motif and π–π stacking interactions between the pyrimidinium ring and the thiophene ring with an observed interplanar distance of 3.4188 (10) Å, a centroid-to-centroid (Cg1–Cg2) distance of 3.5414 (13) Å (where Cg1 is the centroid of the ring N1B/C2B–C6B and Cg2 is the centroid of the ring S1A/C2A–C5A) and slip angle (the angle between the centroid vector and the normal to the plane) of 18.0°; these are typical aromatic stacking values (Hunter, 1994). Through these interactions, parallel inversion-related sheets are connected into double layers parallel to (101). In addition, weak C—H⋯O, C—H⋯S and C—H⋯π intermolecular interactions connect the double layers into a three-dimensional network (Fig. 3).
4. Database survey
The crystal structures of aminopyrimidine derivatives (Schwalbe & Williams, 1982) and aminopyrimidine carboxylates (Hu et al., 2002), have been reported. Several co-crystals/salts of aminopyrimidine derivatives have been reported from our laboratory including co-crystals/salts of aminopyrimidines with carboxylic acid (Muthiah et al., 2006; Devi & Muthiah, 2007; Subashini et al., 2008; Thanigaimani et al., 2009; Ebenezer & Muthiah, 2010, 2012; Ebenezer et al., 2011), aminopyrimidines–thiophenecarboxylic acid (Jegan Jennifer et al., 2014), the of 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidiniumthiophene-2-carboxylate (Rajam et al., 2015) and metal complexes with 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine (Karthikeyan et al., 2016)
5. Synthesis and crystallization
A hot DMF solution of 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine (39 mg, Alfa Aesar) and thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (43 mg, Alfa Aesar) were mixed and warmed for half an hour over a water bath. The mixture was cooled slowly and kept at room temperature. After a few days colourless plate-like crystals were obtained.
6. Refinement
Crystal data, data collection and structure . The N—H and O—H H atoms were located in difference Fourier maps and refined isotropically. All other H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding-model approximation with C—H = 0.95 Å (CH) or 0.98 Å (CH3). Isotropic displacement parameters for these atoms were set to 1.2 (CH) or 1.5 (CH3) times Ueq of the parent atom. Idealized Me H atoms were refined as rotating groups. There are larger than expected residual density peaks close to the Cl and S atoms but these are not chemically sensible and are assumed to be related to the quality of the crystal.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
