The complete molecules of the title compounds, N2,N5-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxamide, C18H16N6O2 (I), 3,6-dimethyl-N2,N5-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxamide, C20H20N6O2 (II), and N2,N5-bis(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxamide, C18H16N6O2 (III), are generated by inversion symmetry, with the pyrazine rings being located about centres of inversion. Each molecule has an extended conformation with the pyridine rings inclined to the pyrazine ring by 89.17 (7)° in (I), 75.83 (8)° in (II) and by 82.71 (6)° in (III). In the crystal of (I), molecules are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers lying parallel to the bc plane. The layers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. In the crystal of (II), molecules are also linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers lying parallel to the (10-1) plane. As in (I), the layers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. In the crystal of (III), molecules are again linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, but here form corrugated sheets lying parallel to the bc plane. Within the sheets, neighbouring pyridine rings are linked by offset π–π interactions [intercentroid distance = 3.739 (1) Å]. The sheets are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. Compound (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c. Another monoclinic polymorph, C2/c, has been reported on by Cockriel et al. [Inorg. Chem. Commun. (2008), 11, 1–4]. The molecular structures of the two polymorphs are compared.
1. Chemical context
The title compounds are part of a series of pyrazine mono- and di- and tetrakiscarboxamide derivatives synthesized to study their coordination chemistry with essentially first-row transition metals (Cati, 2002). Compound (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c. Another monoclinic polymorph, C2/c, has been described by Cockriel et al. (2008).
2. Structural commentary
The molecular structures of the title compounds, (I), (II) and (III), are illustrated in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The whole molecule of each compound is generated by inversion symmetry, with the pyrazine rings being located about centers of inversion. Each molecule has an extended conformation with the pyridine rings inclined to the pyrazine ring by 89.17 (7)° in (I), by 75.83 (8)° in (II) and by 82.71 (6)° in (III). The methylcarboxamide units (C4—N2—C3=O1) are inclined to the pyrazine ring by 4.24 (9), 3.13 (10) and 9.32 (8)° in (I), (II) and (III), respectively.
In the monoclinic C2/c polymorph of (I) (Cockriel et al., 2008), the whole molecule is also generated by inversion symmetry (Fig. 4). However, here the molecule is almost planar with the pyridine rings being inclined to the pyrazine ring by only 5.70 (7)°. The pyridine ring is orientated in such a manner that the NH hydrogen atom forms short contacts with both the adjacent pyrazine and pyridine N atoms, as shown in Fig. 4. The carbonyl O atom also accepts a short contact from a pyrazine H atom (Fig. 4).
3. Supramolecular features
In the crystal of (I), molecules are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers lying parallel to the bc plane (Table 1 and Fig. 5). The layers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure (Table 1 and Fig. 6)
|
In the crystal of (II), molecules are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers lying parallel to the (10) plane (Table 2 and Fig. 7). As in the crystal of (I), the layers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure (Table 2 and Fig. 8)
|
In the crystal of (III), molecules are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming corrugated sheets lying parallel to the bc plane (Table 3 and Fig. 9). The sheets are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure (Table 3 and Fig. 10). Within the sheets, neighbouring pyridine rings are linked by offset π–π interactions [Cg2⋯Cg2iv = 3.739 (1) Å, Cg2 is the centroid of the pyridine ring (N3/C5–C9), α = 1.85 (7)°, interplanar distances = 3.525 (1) and 3.552 (1) Å, slippage = 1.168 Å; symmetry code: (iv) x + 1, −y + , z + ].
4. Database survey
A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (Version 5.38, update February 2017; Groom et al., 2016) for pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxamides yielded three hits, viz. N,N′-bis(4-pentylphenyl)pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxamide (CSD refcode: DABDOC; Zhang et al., 2015), N,N′-diphenylpyrazine-2,5-dicarboxamide (HIYKEH; Cheng et al., 2014), and the monoclinic C2/c polymorph of compound (I) (AFAPOV; Cockriel et al., 2008), mentioned above. All three compounds possess inversion symmetry and HIYKEH, like AFAPOV, has an almost planar conformation (cf. Fig. 4).
5. Synthesis and crystallization
Pyrazine 2,5-dicarboxylic acid was prepared by oxidation of 2,5-dimethylpyrazine with selenium dioxide (Schut et al., 1961).
Dimethyl 3,6-dimethylpyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate was prepared following reported procedures (Takeuchi et al., 1990; Wang, 1996).
Dimethyl pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate was obtained following the procedure described by (Schut et al., 1961). A mixture of anhydrous pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (5 g, 30 mmol), absolute methanol (190 ml) and 1.5 ml (ca 3 g) of conc. sulfuric acid were refluxed until a clear solution was obtained (ca 9 h). After standing overnight at 268 K, the crystalline product formed was filtered off, washed with ice-cold methanol (2 × 20 ml) then dried over PO5 [yield 90%, m.p. 441 (1) K].
Note: Both pyrazine 2,5-dicarboxylic acid and dimethyl pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate are also available commercially.
Compound (I): was prepared by refluxing dimethyl pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate (1.00 g, 5 mmol) and an excess of 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine (1.55g, 14.3 mmol) in 30 ml of methanol in a two-necked flask (100 ml). After 150 min a precipitate appeared, and after refluxing for 5 h the suspension was cooled to room temperature. A white solid was filtered off and washed with 10 ml of cold methanol. It was then recrystallized from dichloromethane solution to give colourless plate-like crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray (yield 81%, m.p. 479 K).

6. Refinement
Crystal data, data collection and structure . Intensity data for (I) and (III) were measured at 153 K on a one-circle image-plate diffractometer, while for (II) intensity data were measured at 293 K on a four-circle diffractometer. For all three compounds, the NH H atoms were located in difference-Fourier maps and freely refined. The C-bound H atoms were included in calculated positions and treated as riding: C—H = 0.95–0.99 Å for (I) and (III) with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C); C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å for (II), with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C-methyl) and 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms.

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. |

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. |
