Abstract
The quinoline ring system of the title salt, C11H12NO+·HSO4 −, is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.054 (2) Å for all non H atoms. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked via N—H⋯O, O—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and are stacked respectively in columns along the a axis. π–π stacking interactions, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.5473 (12) and 3.6926 (12) Å, are also observed. The crystal studied was an inversion twin with refined components of 0.43 (7):0.57 (7).

Comment
Recently, hydrogen-bonding patterns involving quinoline and its derivatives with organic acid have been investigated (Loh et al., 2010a,b). Syntheses of the quinoline derivatives were discussed earlier (Sasaki et al., 1998; Reux et al., 2009). Quinolines and their derivatives are very important compounds because of their wide occurrence in natural products (Morimoto et al., 1991) and biologically active compounds (Markees et al., 1970). Herein we report the synthesis of 8-hydroxy-5,7-dimethylquinolin-1-ium hydrogen sulfate.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound (Fig. 1) consists of one 8-hydroxy-5,7-dimethylquinolin-1-ium cation and one hydrogen sulfate anion. One proton is transferred from the hydroxyl group of sulfuric acid to the atom N1 of 8-hydroxy-5,7-dimethylquinoline during the crystallization, resulting in the formation of salt. The quinoline ring system (C1–C9/N1) is essentially planar with a maximum deviation of 0.054 (2) Å at atom C8. The bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are normal.
In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), the cations are linked by the anions via intermolecular N1—H1N1···O3i, O5—H1O5···O2ii, O1—H1O1···O4i, C3—H3A···O5iii and C11—H11C···O3ii hydrogen bonds (symmetry codes in Table 1) into a three-dimensional network. Furthermore, the crystal structure is stabilized by the following π–π interactions: (a) between pyridine (N1/C1–C5, centroid Cg1) and benzene (C1/C5–C9, centroid Cg2) rings Cg1···Cg2 (1/2 + x, 1/2 - y, 2 - z) 3.5473 (12) Å and (b) between benzene rings (C1/C5–C9, centroid Cg2) Cg2···Cg2 (-1/2 + x, 1/2 - y, 2 - z) 3.6926 (12) Å. The crystal studied was an inversion twin, with a ratio of the twin components of 0.43 (7):0.57 (7).
Experimental
A few drops of sulfuric acid were added to a hot methanol solution (20 ml) of 8-hydroxy-5,7-dimethylquinoline (36 mg, Aldrich) which had been warmed over a heating magnetic stirrer hotplate for a few minutes. The resulting solution was allowed to cool slowly at room temperature and crystals of the title compound (I) appeared after a few days.
Refinement
O- and N-bound H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined freely [refined distances: O—H = 0.97 (4) and 0.79 (3) Å, N—H = 0.91 (2) Å]. The remaining hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.95–0.98 Å) and were refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methyl C). A rotating-group model was used for the methyl group. The crystal studied was an inversion twin, with a ratio of the twin components of 0.43 (7):0.57 (7). The Hooft y parameter was 0.48 (4).

Special details
| Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
| 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. |
