Abstract

In the title salt, C8H10N+·H2PO4 , the cation is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.063 Å). In the crystal, the phosphate anions form inversion R 2 2(8) dimers via pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. These dimers are further linked by pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, also enclosing R 2 2(8) loops, forming chains running along [001]. The cations are bonded to the anions via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯O contacts.

Comment

4-Aminopyridine (Fampridine) is used clinically in Lambert-Eaton myastheni syndrome and multiple sclerosis because by blocking potassium channels it prolongs action potentials thereby increasing transmitter release at the neuromuscular junction (Judge & Bever et al., 2006; Schwid et al., 1997; Strupp et al., 2004).

In the title compound (Fig. 1), the bond lengths and angles have normal values. The asymmetric unit is composed of one 3-methyl 2-vinyl pyridinium cation and one phosphate anion. The C1—N1—C5 angle in the pyridinium ring is widened to 123.35 (2) °, compared to 115.25 (13)° in 4-aminopyridine (Anderson et al., 2005), 121.20 (15) in 1-(2-carboxyethyl)-5-ethyl-2-methylpyridinium (Sabari et al., 2012) and 120.7 (2)° in Aminopyridinium (Fun et al., 2009). The 3-methyl 2-vinyl pyridinium ring is essentially planar with the maximum deviation from planarity being 0.008 (2) Å for atom C5. The sum of the bond angles around the N1 atom (359.89°) indicates sp2 hybridization.

The phosphate anions form centrosymmetric R22(8) dimers via O—H···O hydrogen bonds. These dimers are further linked to chains running along the c axis. The cations are boned to the anions via N—H···O hydrogen bonds and C—H···O contacts.

Experimental

1 g (0.0084 mol) of freshly distilled 3-methyl 2-vinyl pyridine was dissolved in 15 ml of diethyl ether at -10°C under nitrogen atmosphere. To the above solution, 0.5 ml of H3PO4 and 10 ml of diethyl ether mixture was added in drops with continuous stirring. The product obtained as a white solid was filtered, washed with diethyl ether and dried under vacuum, the product was recrystallized from methanol. Yield: 100% (1.82 g).

Refinement

All H atoms were found in a difference Fourier map and those bonded to O were refined with a distance restraint of 0.90 (1)Å. The other H atoms were fixed geometrically and allowed to ride on their attached atoms, with C—H ranging from 0.93 to 0.96 Å, and with Uiso = 1.2–1.5Ueq (C,N). The methyl group was allowed to rotate but not to tip.

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.
