In the cation of the title salt, C₁₆H₁₄Cl₂N₃S⁺·Br⁻, the central thiazolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation. The phenyl ring is disordered over two sites with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.541 (9):0.459 (9). In the crystal, C—H⋯Br and N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link the components into a three-dimensional network with the cations and anions stacked along the b-axis direction. Weak C—H⋯π interactions, which only involve the minor disorder component of the ring, also contribute to the molecular packing. In addition, there are also inversion-related Cl⋯Cl halogen bonds and C—Cl⋯π (ring) contacts. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was conducted to verify the contributions of the different intermolecular interactions.

Keywords: crystal structure; iminium salt; thiazolidine ring; 2,3-dichlorobenzene; hydrogen bonding; Hirshfeld surface analysis.

1. Chemical context

Schiff bases of heterocyclic amines and their complexes have attracted attention over the past decades not only due to the relatively easy synthesis, but also in view of their potential biological, pharmacological and analytical applications (Akbari et al., 2017 ; Gurbanov et al., 2018a ,b ; Hazra et al., 2018 ; Kvyatkovskaya et al., 2017 ; Mahmoudi et al., 2016 , 2017a ,b , 2018a ,b ; Mitoraj et al., 2018 ; Shetnev et al., 2017 ). Non-covalent interactions play an important role in the stabilization of coordination or supramolecular compounds derived from Schiff bases (Mahmudov et al., 2016 , 2017a ,b ; Zubkov et al., 2018 ). Herein we report strong charge-assisted hydrogen bonds and halogen bonding in the structure of (E)-3-[(2,3-dichlorobenzylidene)amino]-5-phenylthiazolidin-2-iminium bromide.

2. Structural commentary

In the cation of the title salt (Fig. 1), the central thiazolidine ring (S1/N2/C1–C3) adopts an envelope conformation with puckering parameters Q(2) = 0.205 (4) Å and φ(2) = 222.1 (12)°. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the central thiazolidine ring and the 2,3-dichlorobenzene ring (C5–C10) is 16.0 (2)° while this plane subtends angles of 79.1 (3) and 86.7 (4)° with the major and minor components (C11–C16 and C11/C12′–C16′), respectively, of the disordered phenyl ring. The dihedral angle between the two disorder components of the ring is 7.6 (4)° and these components are oriented to the 2,3-dichlorobenzene ring by 64.8 (3) and 72.4 (4)°, respectively. The N2—N1—C4—C5 bridge that links the thiazolidine and 2,3-dichlorobenzene rings has a torsion angle of 175.1 (4)°.

3. Supramolecular features and Hirshfeld surface analysis

In the crystal, each cation forms C—H⋯Br and N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds along with inversion-related Cl1⋯Cl1 halogen bonds and C7—Cl2⋯Cg3^iv and C7—Cl2⋯Cg4^iv contacts (Table 1; Fig. 2). Chains of cations form along the a-axis direction (Fig. 3). The crystal structure is further stabilized by C13′—H13B⋯Cg3ⁱⁱ and C13′—H13B⋯Cg4ⁱⁱ interactions involving the minor disorder component (Table 1). Overall, cations and anions are stacked along the b-axis direction (Fig. 4)

The Hirshfeld surface analysis (Spackman & Jayatilaka, 2009 ) of the title salt was generated by CrystalExplorer3.1 (Wolff et al., 2012 ), and comprised d_norm surface plots and two dimensional fingerprint plots (Spackman & McKinnon, 2002 ). A d_norm surface plot of the title salt is shown in Fig. 5. This plot was generated to quantify and visualize the intermolecular interactions and to explain the observed crystal packing. The dark-red spots on the d_norm surface arise as a result of short interatomic contacts, while the other weaker intermolecular interactions appear as light-red spots.

Figure 5

The d_norm surface of the title salt shows a dark-red spot at the N—H hydrogen atom and on the bromide atom, which is the result of the strong N3—H3A⋯Br1ⁱ and N3—H3B⋯Br1 hydrogen bonds present in the structure (Fig. 5). Beside these two short intermolecular contacts, the C—H⋯Br interaction is shown as light-red spots on the d_norm surface. The short interatomic contacts in the title salt are given in Table 2.

A quantitative analysis of the intermolecular interactions can be made by studying the fingerprint plots that are shown with characteristic pseudo-symmetry wings in the d_e and d_i diagonal axes [d_e and d_i represent the distances from a point on the Hirshfeld surface to the nearest atoms outside (external) and inside (internal) the surface, respectively]. These represent both the overall two-dimensional fingerprint plots and those that represent H⋯H, Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl, C⋯H/H⋯C and Br⋯H/H⋯Br contacts, respectively (Fig. 6b-e). The most significant intermolecular interactions are the H⋯H interaction (25.4%), which appear in the central region of the fingerprint plot with de = di ≃ 1.2 Å (Fig. 6b). The reciprocal Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl interactions appear as two symmetrical broad wings with de + di ≃ 2.8 Å and contribute 19.1% to the Hirshfeld surface (Fig. 6c). The reciprocal C⋯H/H⋯C and Br⋯H/H⋯Br interactions with 18.2% and 16.2% contributions are present as sharp symmetrical spikes at diagonal axes d_e + d_i ≃ 2.7 and 2.4 Å, respectively (Fig. 6d–e). The percentage contributions of other intermolecular contacts are less than 6% in the Hirshfeld surface mapping (Table 3).

4. Database survey

A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD Version 5.39, Nov 2017 plus three updates; Groom et al., 2016 ) yielded six hits for 2-thiazolidiniminium compounds with four of them reporting essentially the same cation: [WILBIC (Marthi et al., 1994 ), WILBOI (Marthi et al., 1994), WILBOI01 (Marthi et al., 1994), YITCEJ (Martem'yanova et al., 1993a ), YITCAF (Martem'yanova et al., 1993b ) and YOPLUK (Marthi et al., 1995 )]. In all cases, the 3-N atom carries a C substituent, not N as found in the title compound. The first three crystal structures were determined for racemic (WILBIC; Marthi et al., 1994) and two optically active samples (WILBOI and WILBOI01; Marthi et al., 1994) of 3-(2′-chloro-2′-phenylethyl) −2-thiazolidiniminium p-toluenesulfonate. In all three structures, the most disordered fragment of these molecules is the asymmetric C atom and the Cl atom attached to it. The disorder of the cation in the racemate corresponds to the presence of both enantiomers at each site in the ratio 0.821 (3): 0.179 (3). The system of hydrogen bonds connecting two cations and two anions into 12-membered rings is identical in the racemic and in the optically active crystals. YITCEJ (Martem'yanova et al., 1993a), is a product of the interaction of 2-amino-5-methylthiazoline with methyl iodide, with alkylation at the endocylic nitrogen atom, while YITCAF (Martem'yanova et al., 1993b) is a product of the reaction of 3-nitro-5-methoxy-, 3-nitro-5-chloro-, and 3-bromo-5-nitrosalicylaldehyde with the heterocyclic base to form the salt-like complexes.

5. Synthesis and crystallization

To a solution of 1 mmol of 3-amino-5-phenylthiazolidin-2-iminium bromide in 20 mL ethanol 1 mmol of 2,3-dichlorobenzaldehyde was added and the solution refluxed for 2 h. The reaction mixture was cooled down to precipitate the product as colourless single crystals. These were collected by filtration and washed with cold acetone. The title compound was recrystallized from methanol by slow evaporation at room temperature over several days.

6. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 4. The H atoms were positioned geometrically [N—H = 0.90 Å and C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å] and were refined using a riding model, with U_iso(H) = 1.2U_eq(C,N). The phenyl ring in the cation is disordered over two positions with a site occupancy ratio of 0.541 (9):0.459 (9). Using DFIX, the bond distances in the two disorder components of the phenyl ring were set to 1.40 Å. Corresponding displacement parameters were also held to be the same using EADP.

Special details top

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.
