Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C6H6NO2 +·NO3 , the protonated cations are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains along the b axis. The cations and anions are also linked by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. C—H⋯O inter­actions also occur. In the cation, the ring makes a dihedral angle of 10.1 (3)° with the carboxylate group.

Comment

Previously, the crystal structures of nicotinium derivatives containing diverse anions have been reported (Athimoolam & Rajaram, 2005; Athimoolam & Natarajan, 2007; Kutoglu & Scheringer, 1983; Jebas et al., 2006; Slouf, 2001; Ye et al., 2010). We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound.

In the title molecule (Fig. 1), the nicotinium cation is planar with a maximum deviation for the carboxylate oxygen atom (O1) being 0.265 (2) Å. In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), the cations are linked by N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) into infinite chains along the [010] vector. Regarding the graph set descriptors (Etter, 1990; Bernstein et al., 1995; Motherwell et al., 2000), this N—H···O chain motif is described as C(6). The bifurcated N—H···O with O—H···O interactions (Table 1) are connecting the nicotinium with nitrates, thus defining a third-level discrete D33(13) hydrogen bond motif in the bc-plane (Fig. 2).

Experimental

The title compound was unintentionally obtained during a microwave irradiation (300 W, 150 oC, 10 min., MicroSynth, Milestone) reaction of Ce(OH)4 in diluted nitric acid with aqueous solution of nicotinic acid. After cooling, the solution was left undisturbed and colourless crystals were collected by filtration after one week.

Refinement

Aromatic carbon–bound H–atoms were placed in ideal calculated positions [C—H 0.93 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)] and refined as riding atoms. Amine and hydroxyl hydrogen atoms were located from difference Fourier map and refined freely.

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.
