The solid-state structure of the title compound, alternatively called 2-amino­anilinium hydrogen phosphonate, C6H9N2+·H2PO3-, shows the monoprotonated di­amine mol­ecule to be multiply hydrogen bonded to HPO3H- anions. There is no inter-phosphite hydrogen bonding, contrary to previous solid-state observations of the species.

Comment top

Dihydrogen phosphite (HPO3H2) has been observed in the solid state both in its monoanionic and dianionic forms. There have been observations of the doubly deprotonated form (HPO3-2) with metallic cations: Mg(HPO3)·6H2O (Corbridge, 1956), Na2(HPO3)·5H2O (Colton & Henn, 1971), Cu(HPO3)·2H2O (Handlovic, 1969); Al2(HPO3)3·Ga2(HPO3)3 (Morris et al., 1994), Ga2(HPO3)3·4H2O (Morris et al., 1992) are also known. The single known structure of an organic cation and (HPO3) is (NH4)2(HPO3)·5H2O (Rafiq et al., 1982). The monoanionic form has been observed in the solid state with metallic cations in Ca(HPO3H)2·H2O (Larbot et al., 1984), Cd(HPO3H)2·H2O (Loub et al., 1978), Nd(HPO3H)2·2H2O (Loukili et al., 1988), Fe(HPO3H)3 (Sghyar et al., 1991) and Zn(HPO3H)2.0.333H2O (Durand et al., 1992), and also with organic cations in isopropyl ammonium phosphite (Averbuch-Pouchot, 1993a), anilinium phosphite (Adrissi et al., 2000), as well as in glycinium phosphite and glycylglycinium phosphite (Averbuch-Pouchot, 1993b). The two organic examples of HPO3H- show the two different types of hydrogen possible in the solid state. In isopropyl ammonium phosphite (Averbuch-Pouchot, 1993a), glycinium phosphite and glycylglycinium phosphite (Averbuch-Pouchot, 1993b), the monoanions are linked in a polymeric chain by hydrogen bonding. In anilinium phosphite (Adrissi et al., 2000), phosphite groups are hydrogen bonded in pairs which resemble the doubly hydrogen-bonded pairs normally observed in carboxylic acid species. In both arrangements, ammonium groups serve as hydrogen-bond donors in additional hydrogen bonding. We have examined the solid-state structure of the monoanionic form of dihydrogen phosphite, with o-phenylenediamine, (I), and find that contrary to previous observations, there is no hydrogen bonding between phosphite anions. The H atom on the phosphite O1 atom is donated to the amino group, H11···N2. The ammonium group of the 2-aminoanilinium species serves as a donor to the remaining phosphite O atoms, viz. H1a···O3, H1b···O3 and H1c···O2. The two H atoms of the amino group are similarly involved in hydrogen bonding to these O atoms: N2—H2a···O2 and N2—H2b···O3 (Fig. 1). Packing shows an alternation of cationic and anionic species on planes perpendicular to the c direction. Other structural details are normal. However, the average C—C distance in the phenyl ring is 1.36 Å and the C5—C6 distance is 1.346 (5) Å. The reason for these deviations from the expected values of 1.395 Å are unclear. Bond lengths reveal the protonated O1 atom to have a longer P—O bond [1.534 (2) Å] than P1—O2 [1.461 (3) Å] and P1—O3 [1.471 (2) Å], which are of similar length as a result of delocalization of the negative charge between them. The C—NH3+ bond [1.422 (4) Å] is longer than the C—NH2 bond [1.384 (4) Å], as predicted by charge considerations.

Experimental top

A single-crystal of the title salt was prepared by slow evaporation of a 1:1 aqueous solution of phosphorous acid (H3PO3) and 1,2-diaminobenzene.

Refinement top

H atoms on N, P and O atoms were located from a difference Fourier synthesis and then repositioned using HIMP (SHELXL97; Sheldrick, 1997) at idealized distances, i.e. N—H 0.90, P—H 1.14 and O—H 0.85 Å. H atoms of the aromatic ring were given idealized geometry, with C—H distances of 0.93 Å. The Uiso values were fixed at 0.05 Å2 for all H atoms.

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.
