Guanidinium phenylarsonate-guanidine-water (1/1/2)

In the structure of CH6N3+ C6H6AsO3- . CH5N3 . 2H2O, the phenylarsonate anion gives two R2/2(8) cyclic hydrogen-bonding interactions, one with a guanidinium cation, the other with a guanidine molecule. The anions are also bridged by the water molecules, one of which completes a cyclic R3/5(9) hydrogen-bonding association with the guanidinum cation, conjoint with one of the three R^2^~2~(8) associations about that ion, as well as forming an R1/2(6) cyclic association with the guanidine molecule. The result is a three-dimensional framework structure.

Bis(4-carbamoylpiperidinium)biphenyl-4,4'-disulfonate

In the title isonipecotamide salt 2C6H13N2O+.C12H8O6S22-,the asymmetric unit comprises one biphenyl-4,4'-disulfonate dianion which lies across a crystallographic inversion centre and another in a general position [dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 37.1(1)deg], together with three isonipecotamide cations. Two of these cations give a cyclic homomeric amide-amide dimer interaction [graph set R2/2(8)],the other giving a similar dimeric interaction but across an inversion centre, both dimers then forming lateral cyclic R2/4(8) pyrimidinium N-H...O interactions. These units are linked longitudinally to the sulfonate groups of the dianions through piperidinium N-H...O hydrogen bonds, giving a three-dimensional framework structure.

Anhydrous 1:1 proton-transfer compounds of isonipecotamide with picric acid and 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid: 4-carbamoylpiperidinium 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate and two polymorphs of 4-carbamoylpiperidinium 2-carboxy-4,6-dinitrophenolate

The structures of the anhydrous 1:1 proton-transfer compounds of isonipecotamide (4-carbamoylpiperidine) with picric acid and 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid, namely 4-carbamoylpiperidinium 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate, C6H13N2O8+ C6H2N3O7- (I) and 4-carbamoylpiperidinium 2-carboxy-4,6-dinitrophenolate, C6H13N2O8+ C7H3N2O7-: two forms, the monoclinic alpha-polymorph (II) and the triclinic beta-polymorph (III) have been determined at 200 K. All compounds form hydrogen-bonded structures, one-dimensional in (II), two-dimensional in (I) and three-dimensional in (III). In (I), the cations form centrosymmetric cyclic head-to-tail hydrogen-bonded homodimers [graph set R2/2(14)] through lateral duplex piperidinium N---H...O(amide) interactions. These dimers are extended into a two-dimensional network structure through further interactions with anion phenolate-O and nitro-O acceptors, including a direct symmetric piperidinium N-H...O(phenol),O(nitro) cation--anion association [graph set R2/1(6)]. The monoclinic polymorph (II) has a similar R2/1(6) cation-anion hydrogen-bonding interaction to (I) but with an additional conjoint symmetrical R1/2(4) interaction as well as head-to-tail piperidinium N-H...O(amide) O hydrogen bonds and amide N-H...O(carboxyl) hydrogen bonds, give a network structure which include large R3/4(20) rings. The hydrogen bonding in the triclinic polymorph (III) is markedly different from that of monoclinic (II). The asymmetric unit contains two independent cation-anion pairs which associate through cyclic piperidinium N-H...O,O'(carboxyl) interactions [graph set R2/1(4)]. The cations also show the zig-zag head-to-tail piperidinium N-H...O(amide) hydrogen-bonded chain substructures found in (II) but in addition feature amide N-H...O(nitro) and O(phenolate) and amide N-H...O(nitro) associations. As well there is a centrosymmetric double-amide N-H...O(carboxyl) bridged bis(cation-anion) ring system [graph set R2/4(8)] in the three-dimensional framework. The structures reported here demonstrate the utility of the isonipecotamide cation as a synthon with previously unrecognized potential for structure assembly applications. Furthermore, the structures of the two polymorphic 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid salts show an unusual dissimilarity in hydrogen-bonding characteristics, considering that both were obtained from identical solvent systems.

In the structure of the title compound, C6H13N2O+ C7H4NO5-, the isonipecotamide cations and the 5-nitrosalicylate anions form hydrogen-bonded chain substructures through head-to-tail piperidinium N---H...O(carboxyl) hydrogen bonds and through centrosymmetric cyclic head-to-head amide-amide hydrogen-bonding associations [graph set R2/2(8)]. These chains are cross linked by amide N---H...O~carboxyl~ and piperidinium N-H...O(nitro) associations to give a two-dimensional sheet structure.

The coordinated water molecules as well as the water molecules of solvation give water-water and water-carboxyl hydrogen-bonding interactions in the three-dimensional framework structure.
