1-Methylimidazole 3-N-oxide (NMI-O) crystallizes as a monohydrate, C4H6N2O·H2O, in the monoclinic space group P21 with Z′ = 2 (mol­ecules A and B). The imidazole rings display a planar geometry (r.m.s. deviations = 0.0008 and 0.0002 Å) and are linked in the crystal structure into infinite zigzag strands of ⋯NMI-O(A)⋯OH2⋯NMI-O(B)⋯OH2⋯ units by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. These chains propagate along the b-axis direction of the unit cell.

1. Chemical context

Aryl-N-oxides are an important class of materials acting as highly efficient catalysts for the phospho­rylation of alcohols (Murray et al., 2015[Murray, J. I., Woscholski, R. & Spivey, A. C. (2015). Synlett, 26, 985-990.]) and also for the site-selective phos­phoyl­ation of polyols and peptides (Murray et al. 2014[Murray, J. I., Woscholski, R. & Spivey, A. C. (2014). Chem. Commun. 50, 13608-13611.]). One material in particular, 1-methylimidazole 3-N-oxide, (NMI-O), has been shown to be a highly efficient catalyst for both sulfonyl­ation and silylation procedures (Murray & Spivey, 2015[Murray, J. I. & Spivey, A. C. (2015). Adv. Synth. Catal. 357, 3825-3830.]). Until recently, NMI-O has been somewhat elusive in the literature. The synthesis of NMI-O and its use as a highly efficient catalyst for certain Morita–Baylis–Hillman reactions has been reported (Lin et al., 2005[Lin, Y.-S., Liu, C.-W. & Tsai, T. Y. R. (2005). Tetrahedron Lett. 46, 1859-1861.]) although no conclusive information on the structural identity of the material synthesized was presented. A recent paper, directed at the synthesis of salts of 1-alkyl-imidazole 3-oxides for use as ionic liquids also reported the synthesis of NMI-O, however all attempts at crystallizing a sample of this material were unsuccessful although two crystalline adducts of NMI-O, a tris (2-thien­yl)borane and a silver carbene hexa­fluorido­phosphate, were structurally characterized (Laus et al., 2008[Laus, G., Schwärtzler, A., Bentivoglioa, G., Hummel, M., Kahlenberg, V., Wurst, K., Kristeva, E., Schütz, J., Kopacka, H., Kreutz, C., Bonn, G., Andriyko, Y., Nauer, G. & Schottenberger, H. (2008). Z. Naturforsch. Teil B, 63, 447-464.]). These authors also demonstrated by NMR and subsequent X-ray structural analysis of a related 1,2-di­methyl­imidazole semiperhydrate material that the likely product reported earlier (Lin et al., 2005[Lin, Y.-S., Liu, C.-W. & Tsai, T. Y. R. (2005). Tetrahedron Lett. 46, 1859-1861.]) was the 1-methylimidazole semiperhydrate rather than NMI-O itself. We now present a simplified synthesis of MNI-O and the crystal structure of its hydrate.

2. Structural commentary

The asymmetric unit of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1[link]. It contains two mol­ecules of NMI-O and two fully occupied and ordered water mol­ecules, making the overall stoichiometry a monohydrate. A calculated least-squares plane through the five atoms of the imidazole ring (C1, N1, C2, C3, N2) for mol­ecules A and B gave r.m.s. deviations from planarity of 0.0008 and 0.0002 Å, respectively, with the oxygen atoms of the N+— O groups also residing close to the ring plane; O1A, −0.021 (4) Å; O1B, −0.008 (4) Å. The methyl groups lie somewhat farther outside the plane of the ring with displacements of −0.073 (5) Å for C4A and −0.116 (1) Å for C4B. The dihedral angle formed between the least-squares planes of the A and B NMI-O mol­ecules is 12.96 (16)°. The present data were not of sufficient quality to determine the absolute structure.

3. Supra­molecular features

In the crystal, the NMI-O and water mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form an infinite NMI-O⋯OH2⋯NMI-O⋯OH2⋯ chain propagating along the b-axis direction of the unit cell. Each water mol­ecule forms two hydrogen bonds, one to each of the N+— O groups of NMI-O mol­ecules A and B with the oxygen atoms of these groups acting as double acceptors from both water mol­ecules (Table 1[link], Fig. 2[link]). The NMI-O⋯OH2⋯NMI-O⋯OH2⋯ chains are cross-linked in the crystal structure by weaker C—H⋯O inter­actions (Table 1[link]) with H⋯O contacts in the range 2.41–2.56 Å.

4. Database survey

A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.37 update February 2016; Groom et al., 2016[Groom, C. R., Bruno, I. J., Lightfoot, M. P. & Ward, S. C. (2016). Acta Cryst. B72, 171-179.]) for the imidazole-3-oxide substructure yielded 16 hits, all of which were genuine examples of substituted imidazole-3-oxides. Closely related examples include 1-hy­droxy­imidazole-3-oxide (DOJKUJ), 1-hy­droxy-2-methyl­imidazole-3-oxide (DOJLAQ), 3-hy­droxy-1,2-di­methyl­imidazolium 1,2-di­meth­yl­imidazolium-3-oxide iodide (DOJMUL) and 1,2-di­methyl­imidazole-3-oxide (DOJNAS) (Laus et al., 2008[Laus, G., Schwärtzler, A., Bentivoglioa, G., Hummel, M., Kahlenberg, V., Wurst, K., Kristeva, E., Schütz, J., Kopacka, H., Kreutz, C., Bonn, G., Andriyko, Y., Nauer, G. & Schottenberger, H. (2008). Z. Naturforsch. Teil B, 63, 447-464.]). For 1-hy­droxy-2,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazole 3-oxide (JADNAE; Sánchez-Migallón et al. 2003[Sánchez-Migallón, A., de la Hoz, A., López, C., Claramunt, R. M., Infantes, L., Motherwell, S., Shankland, K., Nowell, H., Alkorta, I. & Elguero, J. (2003). Helv. Chim. Acta, 86, 1026-1039.]), the N+— O bond length was particularly short at 1.276 and 1.278 Å for the two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. For the title compound, the N+—O bond lengths are 1.350 (3) and 1.348 (3)Å for mol­ecules A and B, respectively. These values are within the range exhibited for the remaining 15 database entries (1.326–1.368 Å).

5. Synthesis and crystallization

The title compound was synthesized in a three-step, one-pot process in which aqueous glyoxal was condensed with hydroxyl­amine hydro­chloride in the presence of sodium carbonate to afford the mono-oxime. This inter­mediate was immediately condensed with methyl­amine to give the corres­ponding imine, which cyclo-condenses upon exposure to aqueous formaldehyde to give NMI-O after acidic workup in ∼68% yield (Murray & Spivey, 2016[Murray, J. I. & Spivey, A. C. (2016). Org. Synth. 93, 331-340.]). The previously reported synthesis also started from glyoxal but required eight steps (Laus et al., 2008[Laus, G., Schwärtzler, A., Bentivoglioa, G., Hummel, M., Kahlenberg, V., Wurst, K., Kristeva, E., Schütz, J., Kopacka, H., Kreutz, C., Bonn, G., Andriyko, Y., Nauer, G. & Schottenberger, H. (2008). Z. Naturforsch. Teil B, 63, 447-464.]). The material was concentrated in vacuo to afford a brown oil, which crystallized overnight as colourless laths in the freezer after exposure to air, forming a monohydrate species. The crystals as prepared were extremely hygroscopic, necessitating a rapid transfer to the cold stream of the diffractometer.

6. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2[link]. The four water H atoms were located in a Fourier difference map and freely refined. All the remaining H atoms were placed geometrically in idealized positions and allowed to ride on their parent atoms: C—H = 0.95–0.98Å with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C-meth­yl) and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms. The data were not of a sufficient quality to reliably determine the absolute structure.

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.
