This study details the crystal structure of an m-xylylenediaminium dinitrate salt. The arrangement reveals layered nitrate anions connected by organic dications through extensive hydrogen bonding, forming a 3D network.

Area of Science:

  • Crystal Chemistry
  • Materials Science
  • Supramolecular Chemistry

Background:

  • Understanding the crystal structures of organic salts is crucial for predicting their physical and chemical properties.
  • Nitrate salts exhibit diverse packing motifs and hydrogen bonding interactions.
  • m-Xylylenediaminium dications offer specific structural and charge characteristics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate the detailed crystal structure of the m-xylylenediaminium dinitrate salt.
  • To investigate the packing arrangements of organic dications and inorganic anions.
  • To characterize the hydrogen bonding network within the crystal lattice.

Main Methods:

  • Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was employed to determine the crystal structure.

  • Analysis of the asymmetric unit content (two dications, four anions).
  • Identification and analysis of hydrogen bonding interactions (N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O).

    • Main Results:

    • The asymmetric unit contains two independent m-xylylenediaminium dications and four nitrate anions.
    • Nitrate anions form layered structures parallel to the (001) plane.
    • A comprehensive network of N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connects ions into 3D sheets parallel to (100).

    Conclusions:

    • The crystal structure is stabilized by a robust three-dimensional hydrogen bond network.
    • The arrangement highlights the interplay between organic cations and inorganic anions in salt formation.
    • This structural insight contributes to the understanding of organic-inorganic hybrid materials.
