Bis(3-carbamoylpyridin-1-ium) phosphite mono­hydrate

Two of the constituent mol­ecules in bis­(3-carbamoylpyridin-1-ium) phosphite monohydrate, i.e. the phosphite anion and the water mol­ecule, are situated on the symmetry plane. The mol­ecules are held together by moderate N—H⋯O and O—H⋯N, and weak O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O_carbon­yl hydrogen bonds in which the primary and secondary amine and water H atoms are involved. The H atom directly bonded to the P atom avoids hydrogen bonding, as usual.

Abstract

Two of the constituent mol­ecules in the title structure, 2C₆H₇N₂O⁺·HPO₃ ²⁻·H₂O, i.e. the phosphite anion and the water mol­ecule, are situated on a symmetry plane. The mol­ecules are held together by moderate N—H⋯O and O—H⋯N, and weak O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O_carbon­yl hydrogen bonds in which the amide and secondary amine groups, and the water molecules are involved. The structural features are usual, among them the H atom bonded to the P atom avoids hydrogen bonding.

Chemical context  

Nicotinamide (pyridine-2-carboxamide) is a biologically important mol­ecule, being the active part of vitamin B3 and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) (e.g. Wald, 1991 ▸; Williamson et al., 1967 ▸).

However, inter­est in the preparation of the title hydrated salt was called for with respect to an investigation of the configuration of the –NH₂ group and its dependence on its environment.

It was hoped that 3-carbamoyl­pyridine (nicotinamide) would make a salt or a co-crystal with phospho­rous acid, H₃PO₃. It is difficult to predict which of these two forms would be prefererred, because of a small difference of ΔpK _a = pK _a(base) − pK _a(acid) (Childs et al., 2007 ▸). [The pK _a values for 3-carbamoyl­pyridine and H₃PO₃ are 3.3 and 1.3 (first degree), respectively (CRC Handbook, 2009 ▸).]

Structural commentary  

The title molecules are shown in Fig. 1 ▸. The resulting structure turned out to be a monohydrated salt. Table 1 ▸ lists the hydrogen bonds, which are shown in Fig. 2 ▸. The secondary amine hydrogen H1n1 is involved in the strongest hydrogen bond present in the structure (N1—H1n1⋯O3ⁱ). Its parameters indicate that this hydrogen bond is situated on the boundary between strong and moderate hydrogen bonds (Gilli & Gilli, 2009 ▸). The amide hydrogen H1n2 is donated to the water oxygen, while H2n2 is donated to atom O3 of the phosphite anion. Atom O2 is an acceptor of water hydrogen H1ow. Water hydrogen H2ow is donated to a pair of O3 atoms. The carbonyl oxygen O1 is an acceptor of two weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, namely C3—H1c3⋯O1ⁱⁱ and C4—H1c4⋯O1ⁱⁱⁱ. The water oxygen atom is also an acceptor of hydrogen H1c2 (see Table 1 ▸).

Phosphite and fluoro­phospho­nate, as well hydrogen phosphite and hydrogen fluoro­phospho­nate, are similar mol­ecules. Either mol­ecule can be involved, not only in isostructural compounds, but even in mixed crystals (Fábry et al., 2012 ▸). Similarity regarding not only the shape of the mol­ecules but also the avoidance both of P-bonded fluorines and hydrogens of involvement in strong or moderate hydrogen bonds (Matulková et al., 2017 ▸). The latter article shows a plot of the dependence of P—F distance on the longest P—O distance in flouro­phospho­nate and hydrogen fluoro­phospho­nate mol­ecules. The P—F distance tends to be longer in [FPO₃]²⁻ than in [HFPO₃]⁻. Fig. 3 ▸ shows a similar plot for the phosphites and hydrogen phosphites between both mol­ecules despite the larger spread of P—H distances in phosphite mol­ecules because of the lower accuracy of the H-atom determinations by X-ray diffraction experiments. The reason why the P—H bond tends to be longer follows from the conservation of the overall bond valence sum of the central P⁵⁺ or P³⁺ atom. It is worth pointing out that the tabulated value of the bond valence parameter for the P—H bond seems to yield too high values. For example, for the important values of the P—H distances, i.e. 1.28, 1.33 and 1.37 Å (cf. Fig. 3 ▸), the bond valences (Brese & O’Keeffe, 1991 ▸) are 1.42, 1.24 and 1.11, respectively. The P—H bond valence parameters are going to be checked as part of future work.

The C—NH₂ group tends to be fairly planar for short C—N bonds (Fábry et al., 2014 ▸). In agreement with a short C—N bond length [C6—N2 = 1.3232 (18) Å] in the title structure, the best plane through C6/N2/H1n2/H2n2 reveals a maximum deviation of about 0.05 (2) Å for each hydrogen, while ξ² = 12.6.

Supra­molecular features  

In the crystal, the most important graph-set motif (Etter et al., 1990 ▸) present is an (10) ring motif, which is composed of atoms P1—O3⋯H2n2^iv—N2^iv—H1n2^iv⋯Ow⋯H1n2^vii—N2^vii—H2n2^vii⋯O3ⁱ (Table 1 ▸ and Fig. 2 ▸; symmetry codes are given in the figure cation). The phosphite anion and the water mol­ecule are linked by O_water—H⋯O_phosphite hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along [001]. The cations are linked to these chains via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the bc plane, as shown in Fig. 2 ▸. The layers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in the formation of a supra­molecular three-dimensional structure.

Database survey  

The applied crystallographic databases were the Cambridge Crystallographic Database (Version 5.39, with updates to May 2018; Groom et al., 2016 ▸) and the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (June 2018; ICSD, 2018 ▸). The search was carried out for all phosphites or hydrogen phosphites with a cation of one kind.

Synthesis and crystallization  

The title structure was prepared by slow evaporation of a water solution (18 ml) of equimolar amounts of nicotinamide (1.49 g) and phospho­rous acid (1 g). Colourless crystals were isolated after two months.

Refinement  

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2 ▸. All the H atoms were discernible in the difference electron-density map. The aryl H atoms were constrained by the constraints C—H = 0.95 Å and U _iso(H) = 1.2U _eq(C). Water hydrogen H2ow was refined freely, while H1ow was restrained with a distance restraint of 0.84 Å with elasticity 0.02 Å (Müller, 2009 ▸), and with U _iso(H) = 1.5U _eq(O). The hydrogens of the primary amine N2 group and the secondary amine N1 group were constrained by U _iso(H) = 1.2U _eq(N). The P—H hydrogen was refined isotropically. Three reflections, i.e. 95, 10,5, and 11,5,, were discarded from the refinement because |I(obs) − I(calc)|/σ(I) > 20.

Since the phosphite oxygens revealed large displacement ellipsoids, the anharmonic displacement parameters upto the fourth grade were included for atoms P1, O2 and O3. (The refinement with the harmonic approximation resulted in R _obs = 0.0242, Rw _obs = 0.0773, R _all = 0.0243, Rw _all = 0.0774 and S = 3.13, with number of parameters = 127. With application of anharmonic approximation, R _obs = 0.0188, Rw _obs = 0.0535, R _all = 0.0188, Rw _all = 0.0535 and S = 2.21, with number of parameters = 181. The respective values of the third- and fourth-order components of the displacement tensor are given in the CIF.)

Refinement with the assumption of the presence of inversion twinning resulted in a Flack parameter of 0.012 (13) (726 Friedel pairs used in the refinement). Therefore, the crystal was considered as single-domained in the final stage of the refiement, the results of which are presented here.

Special details

Refinement. This part differs from the original article by Thanigaimani et al. (2006). It also differs from the refinement by Thanigaimani et al. (2006) by a different threshold for the consideration of the observed diffractions: F2 > 3sigma(F2) has been used as criterion for observed diffractions by JANA2006 which was used for the calculation of the corrected structural model.Three diffractions 9 5 -2, 10 5 -2, 11 5 -2 were discarded from the refinement because |I(obs)-I(calc)|/σ(I) > 20. Since the Flack parameter turned out to equal to 0.012 (13) in the final stage of refinement it was set to 0. 726 Friedel pairs used in the refinement.
