An aqueous solution of (2-methoxyphenyl) methanamine (2-methoxybenzylamine), zinc chloride and 1 M hydrochloric acid in a Petri disk was slowly evaporated at room temperature. A colourless block of (I), which remained stable under normal conditions of temperature and humidity, was isolated as a byproduct of the reaction.
C—H and ammonium H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H in the range 0.93–0.97 and N—H equal to 0.89 Å. The imminium and the water hydrogen atom postitions were refined with N—H and O—H distance restraints of 0.89 (2) and 0.82 (2) Å. The Uiso(H) values of all H atoms were constrained to 1.2 or 1.5 times Ueq of the respective parent atom.

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. |

As a part of our ongoing investigations in molecular salts containing meta-chlorido complexes (Ben Gharbia et al., 2005; Ben Gharbia et al., 2008), we report here the crystal structure of one such compound, (C16H18NO2)(C8H12NO)[ZnCl4].H2O. The title compound was obtained as a byproduct of the Zn2+ and HCl catalyzed condensation of (2-methoxyphenyl) methanamine in water. Subsequent crystallization from the reaction mixture yielded among the main reaction products crystals of the title compound that consist of one N-(2-methoxybenzylidene)-1-(2-methoxyphenyl)methanaminnium cation, one (2-methoxyphenyl) methanaminium cation, one ZnCl42- anion and one interstitial water molecule (Fig. 1).
The distance N1—C9 [1.273 (2) Å] is substantially shorter than the one of N1—C8 [1.477 (2) Å], indicating the presence of a double bond in the condensation product, thus indicating the nature of the organic molecules in the crystal as indictated in Scheme 1. Preliminary NMR data on the material indicate that the bulk of the reaction product is not identical with the title compound. Further investigations into the nature of the bulk material are under way.
The Cl—Zn—Cl bond angles in the title compound show relatively little distortion from a regular tetrahedron [spread values 104.45 (3)–111.78 (2)] (Gayathri et al., 2008, Hosseinian et al., 2009). Classic N—H···O, O—H···Cl and N—H···Cl hydrogen bonds are observed, which link the two types of organic ammonium cations, the anionic complexes [ZnCl4]2- and the uncoordinated water molecules into a 3-D hydrogen bonded network, as shown in Fig. 2. Three of the hydrogen bonds are bifurcated: N1—H1··· (Cl2,O2), N2—H2A···(O3,O4) and N2—H2B···(O4,Cl3).
