Colourless, single crystals of (I) were grown as transparent prisms, from a saturated aqueous solution containing L-phenylalanine and fumaric acid in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio.
The absolute configuation of L-phenylalanine fumaric acid was not established by the analysis but is known from the configuration of the starting reagents. The H atoms were placed at calculated positions and were allowed to ride on their respective parent atoms, with C—H = 0.96 Å, N—H = 0.89 Å, O—H = 0.82 Å and Uiso = 0.05 Å2.

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

In view of the importance of non-covalent interactions in the aggregation and interaction patterns of biological molecules, we have been elucidating the X-ray crystal structures of simple complexes involving amino acids and dicarboxylic acids. Precise crystallographic data on such complexes are expected to provide useful insights into chemical evolution and self-assembly, processes that might have led to the emergence of primitive multi-molecular systems. Fumaric acid (trans-butenedioic acid) is among the organic compounds widely found in Nature, and is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of organic acids. X-ray investigations of amino acid complexes with fumaric acid seem to have been first initiated in our laboratory. Such investigations have provided some interesting data regarding the ionization states and stoichiometry of these molecules. Recently, we have reported the crystal structures of complexes of maleic acid (cis-butenedioic acid) with DL-phenylalanine (Alagar, Subha Nandhini et al., 2003) and L-phenylalanine (Alagar et al., 2001). The present study reports the crystal structure of a complex of L-phenylalanine with fumaric acid.
Fig.1 shows the molecular structure of (I) with the atom-numbering scheme. There are two molecules of phenylalanine and two molecules of fumaric acid in the asymmetric unit. The ionization state exhibited in this structure is uncommon in similar crystal structures. The amino acid molecules exist as zwitterions and the two fumaric acid molecules exist in the unionized state. Usually, in the crystal structures of amino acid-carboyxlic acid complexes, the amino acid molecules prefer the cationic state and the carboxylic acids the anionic state, either as carboxylate(2-) or semicarboxylate(1-) anions. The two fumaric acid molecules in the asymmetric unit are related to each other through a psuedo-inversion centre, and are essentially planar.
Interestingly, if we exclude the N and O atoms, then the two independent amino acid molecules are also related by a pseudo-inversion centre. This is evident from the torsion angles ψ1[−164.1 (2), −138.6 (3)°], ψ2[17.8 (4), 41.1 (3)°], χ1[−69.4 (3), 166.3 (3)°], χ21[−96.9 (4), 99.2 (4)°], χ22[83.2 (4), −79.1 (4)].
The phenylalanine and fumaric acid molecules form hydrogen-bonded double layers, linked together by N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds, and extending along [001]. These double layers are flanked, on either side, by the hydrophobic side chains of phenylalanine, leading to alternating hydrophilic and hydrophobic zones (Fig.2). In addition to van der Waals interactions, a short carbonyl contact C1'···O2 (x + 1, y, z − 1) = 2.998 (3) Å is also observed (Allen et al., 1998).
In the present structure there are no direct hydrogen-bonded interactions between the fumaric acid molecules. This situation is also observed for the non-amino-acid components of the following complexes: L-phenylalanine L-phenylalaninium formate (Görbitz & Etter, 1992), L-phenylalaninium maleate (Alagar et al., 2001), DL-phenylalaninium maleate (Alagar, Subha Nandhini et al.,2003), DL– valine fumaric acid 2/1 (Alagar, Krishnakumar et al., 2003), and DL-valinium maleate (Alagar et al., 2001).
