Source of material
All chemicals were obtained from commercial sources and used as purchased. The title compound was synthesised by dissolving 0.15 g theophylline (0.8 mmol) in 5 mL of 57% aqueous hydroiodid acid. Red crystals were harvested from the mother liquor after two days in the fridge at 5 °C.
Experimental details
A small isometric crystal of the title compound was directly selected from the mother liquor and mounted on a Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy equipped with the HyPix-6000 detector [2] using a nylon loop at 100 K. An absorption correction (numerical absorption correction) was applied [2]. The structure solution and the refinement succeeded using the SHELX program system [3], [4], [5]. Atomic coordinates of hydrogen atoms belonging to the water molecules and those hydrogen atoms attached to nitrogen were refined freely. All other hydrogen atoms were added using a corresponding riding model with fixed Uiso parameters. The maximum residual peak of 2.26 eÅ−3 is found 0.64 Å apart from I7 and the deepest hole of −1.75 eÅ−3 is found 0.56 Å apart from I7.
Comment
Introduction
The term polyiodides – formerly named periodides [6] – describes a class of compounds that is defined as the anionic part of a salt-type structure, which fullfills the general formula
Structural comments
The asymmetric unit of the title structure contains two crystallographically independent theophyllinium cations, one
Each of the two crystallographically independent theophyllinium cations forms a dimer with a symmetry related theophyllinium cation by NH⃛O hydrogen bonds (see the left part of the figure). These dimers are furthermore connected via O–H⃛O hydrogen bonds between the water molecules and the cations to furnish a wavy layer. The bond lengths and angles within the cations as well as the geometric parameters in the various hydrogen bonds are in the expected ranges [16]. The two
A packing diagram with a view against the c axis is shown in the right part of the figure. Classical hydrogen bonding interactions only occur in the aforementioned layers consisting of the cations and the water molecules. These layers are stacked along the b axis. The hydrogen bonded layers are connected via van der Waals interactions only (green line in the right part of the figure). The triiodide anions as well as the
Conclusion
Recently we have shown that hydrogen bonded motifs constructed by theophyllinium cations form layered and more complex frameworks, that are able to stabilize interesting couter anions [[26] and references cited there]. The title structure is one more example to show the performance of the theophyllinium cation to act as a tecton in crystal engineering.
