Comment top

To better understand the formation of complex salts between a guanidine compounds and amino acids we carried out the crystal structure determination of the title compound. The asymmetric unit of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. There are two independent cations and two indpendent anions in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal structure, cations and anions are linked by intramolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network (see Fig. 2).

For an early report of salts formed from amino acids and guanidines, see: Armstrong (1956).

Experimental top

L-Glutamic acid (1.47 g.) and guanidine carbonate (0.90 g) were suspended in 10 ml of water. When the evolution of CO2 had ceased the solution was diluted with 20 ml of acetone, and evaporated to a clear syrup. The syrup was dissolved in 30 ml of absolute methanol to yield a clear solution, and was allowed to stand overnight at room temperature. This solution was then placed in a fume hood for another day, whereupon the crystals of the title compound were collected and dried.

Refinement top

In the absence of significant anomalous dispersion effects Friedel pairs were merged. The absolute configuation is known from the starting material. H atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.99 or 1.00 Å, N—H = 0.88 or 0.91 Å) and were refined as riding, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N) or 1.5eq(N) for –NH3 groups.

Special details top

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.
