Abstract

In the title mol­ecule, C11H16N2O2 2+·2Cl·0.5H2O, all N atoms are protonated. In the crystal structure, the organic cation and Cl ions are linked by N—H⋯Cl and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a one-dimensional infinite ribbon extending parallel to the (110) plane.

Comment

Amino acid derivatives have found wide range of applications in coordination chemistry because of their multiple coordination modes as ligands to metal ions and for the construction of novel metal-organic frameworks (Fu et al. 2007; Dai & Fu 2008; Wen 2008). We report here the crystal structure of the title compound, 1-((pyridin-3-yl)methyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid-1, 1'-ium-dichloride.

In the title compound (Fig.1), the N1 and N2 atoms of the pyrrolidine and pyridine ring are protonated. The two rings are linked by methylene bridge. Bond lengths and angles lie within normal ranges.

In the crystal structure, the organic cation and Cl- ions are linked to form a one-dimentional infinite ribbon developping parallel to the (1 1 0) plane through N—H···Cl and O—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Table 1, Fig.2).

Experimental

1-((pyridin-3-yl)methyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid (3 mmol) was dissolved in the solution of ethanol (20 ml) and hydrochloric acid (1 ml). The solution was allowed to evaporate to obtain colourless block-shaped crystals of the title compound for X-ray analysis.

Refinement

All H atoms attached to C, N and O atoms were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C–H = 0.93 Å (aromatic), 0.97 Å (methylene), N–H = 0.86 Å (N1), 0.91 Å (N2) and O–H = 0.85 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C or N) and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).

One of the pyrrolidine rings is disordered with the C8 atom statistically distributed over two positions. The solvate water molecule is also disordered around an inversion center. These disorders were treated using the tools (SAME, PART) available in SHELXL-97 (Sheldrick, 2008).

Special details

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.
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 > 2sigma(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.
