Abstract

In the title compound, C4H14N2 +·2C9H7O4 −·2H2O, the butane-1,4-diaminium cation lies on an inversion center. In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the components into layers parallel to (100). Addtional stabilization within these layers is provided by weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Comment

Phthalimides and N-substituted phthalimides are animportant class of compounds because of their interesting biological activities (Lima et al., 2002). 2-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzoic acid is an intermediate in the preparation of N-substituted phthalimides. In this paper, the structure of the title compound is reported. The asymmetric unit of the title compound (I) contains one half a butane-1,4-diaminium cation, a 2-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoate anion and a solvent water molecule (Fig. 1). The bond lengths and angles agree with those in ethane-1,2-diaminium 2-(methoxycarbonyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrabromobenzoate methanol solvate (Liang, 2008). In the crystal, intermolecular N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds link the components of the structure into two-dimensional layers parallel to (100) (Fig. 2 and Table 1). Addtional stabilization within these layers is provided by weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds.

Experimental

A mixture of phthalic anhydride (1.52 g, 0.01 mol) and methanol (15 ml) was refluxed for 0.5 h. 1,4-Butanediamine (0.44 g, 0.005 mol) was added to the above solution and mixed for 10 min at room temperature. The solution was kept at room temperature for 5 d. Natural evaporation gave colourless single crystals of the title compound, suitable for X-ray analysis.

Refinement

H atoms were initially located in difference maps and then refined in a riding-model approximation with C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å, N—H = 0.89 Å, O—H = 0.82Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C, O) or 1.5Ueq(N, methyl C).

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 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.
