Abstract

In the title compound, C18H14N4O2·C8H6O4, both types of mol­ecule lie on inversion centers. In the N,N′-bis­(pyridin-3-yl)terephthalamide mol­ecule, the pyridine ring forms a dihedral angle of 11.33 (9)° with the central benzene ring. In the crystal, N—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds connect the components into a three-dimensional network.

Comment

Pyridine amide derivatives and carboxylic acids easily form hydrogen bonds therefore they are useful to construct supramoleculur structures (e.g. Xiao et al., 2011; Wang et al., 2009). Herein, we use N,N'-di(pyridin-3-yl)terephthalamide and terephthalic acid to construct a supramolecular compound. The crystal structure of the title compound is presented herein.

The molecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. The symmetry unique pyridine ring forms a dihedral angle of 11.33 (9)° with the central benzene ring. In the crystal, N—H···O and O—H···N hydrogen bonds connect the components of the structure into a three dimensional network (Fig. 2).

Experimental

N,N'-di(pyridin-3-yl)terephthalamide (0.2 mmol) and terephthalic acid (0.2 mmol) was sealed in a teflon reactor with 6 mL water, and heated at 433 K for 2 days, and then cooled to room temperature. The single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation.

Refinement

H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93Å and included using a riding-model approximation with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). H atoms bonded to O and N atoms were refined independently with isotropic displacement parameters.

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.
