Abstract

In the title compound, C6H9N2S+·Cl·CH4N2S, the 4,6-di­methyl-2-thioxo-1,2-dihydro­pyrimidin-3-ium cation is proton­ated at one of the pyrimidine N atoms. The cations are bridged by the chloride anions through a pair of N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. The amino groups of each thio­urea adduct inter­act with the chloride anions through a pair of N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and the S atom of another thio­urea adduct through a pair of N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds. These inter­actions result in a layered hydrogen-bonded network propagating parallel to the bc plane. Except for two H atoms, all atoms are on special positions.

Comment

The title compound, C6H9N2S.CH4N2SCl, was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, solid-state IR and X-ray crystallographic techniques. The X-ray structure determination reveals that the compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm with a protonated molecular moiety, a chloride anion and one thiourea adduct in the asymmetric unit. The molecular geometry is illustrated in Fig. 1. The C—S bond length of 1.649 (7) Å in the molecular adduct and 1.698 (8) Å in the thiourea are double bonds character and are comparable to those observed for 1-(biphenyl-4-carbonyl)-3-p-tolyl-thiourea [1.647 (3) Å for C—S (Arslan et al., 2004)]. The C—N bond lengths are in the range [1.322 (6)-1.371 (6) Å] and are shorter than the double C—N bond length (Hemamalini et al. <i/>, 2005). All atoms, except H5B and H5C, lie on a mirror plane, similar to the observed structure of 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2(1H</>)-thione (Seth & Sur, 1995). The molecular adduct forms hydrogen bonds with two chloride anions by N1—H1···Cl1(-x + 1/2, -y + 1/2, -z + 1) (Fig. 2). Each thiourea molecule is linked to two other thioura molecule by hydrogen bonds and one chloride anion respectively by N2—H2B···S2(-x, -y, -z + 1) and N2—H2A···Cl1 (Table. 2).

Experimental

Thiourea (2 g, 26 mmol) was reacted with 2,4-pentadione (2.6 g, 26 mmol) in C3H6O (20 ml) solution, to give the corresponding 1:1 adduct after two hour under refluxing. After cooling to room temperature, 3.4 ml HCl 10M was added dropwise to the solution and the resulting mixture was refluxed for one hour before left standing overnight. The filtrate gave yellowish crystal suitable for X-ray analyses after four days of slow evaporation. Yield: 87.69%. m.p. 190±2 °C. Anal. Calc. for C7H13N4S2Cl (%): C, 33.26; H, 5.18; N, 22.16. Found: C, 33.37; H, 5.15; N, 22.25. Selected IR data (cm-1, KBr pellet): 1599 (ν C═N), 1187 (ν C═S). 1H NMR (200 MHz, D2O, δ, p.p.m.): 2.40 (s, 6H, –CH3); 6.83 (s, 1H, –CH). 13C NMR (200 MHz, D2O, δ, p.p.m.): 19.26 (–CH3); 118.32 (–CH); 168.02 (N═C); 172.90 (N═C—S—H).

Refinement

The H atoms of the NH2 groups were located in the Fourier difference maps and refined by riding motion. Others H atoms were placed geometrically and refined with a riding model. Uiso(H) for H was assigned as 1.2Ueq of the attached C atoms (1.5 for methyl C atoms).

Special details

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 F^2^ against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F^2^, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F^2^. The threshold expression of F^2^ > σ(F^2^) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F^2^ are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
