Compound (I) was obtained from a commercial source and used without further purification. Single crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray analysis were prepared by recrystallization from an acetone solution of (I).
For the synthesis of compound (II), bis(2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium) succinate–succinic acid, (III) (1.0 g, 3.9 mmol), was melted down at ca 388 K. Compound (I) (0.54 g, 3.9 mmol) was added to the melt and the mixture was stirred for 15 min at ca 388 K, then left to cool to room temperature overnight. As a result, a fine polycrystalline powder of (II) was obtained (yield 0.9 g, 59%; m.p. 387–389 K). Spectroscopic analysis: 1H NMR (500 MHz, D2O, δ, p.p.m.): 1.16 (t, 3H, J = 7.5 Hz, CH2CH3), 2.43 (s, 2H, CH2CH2), 2.48 (s, 3H, CH3), 2.84 (q, 2H, J = 7.5 Hz, CH2CH3), 7.34 (d, 1H, J = 9 Hz, aryl), 7.66 (d, 1H, J = 9 Hz, aryl).
Single crystals of (II) suitable for X-ray analysis were prepared by reaction of (III) with (I) (the amounts of the compounds were the same as above) in refluxing acetone (30 ml) for 15 min, and subsequent crystallization using seed crystals of (II) [In what solvent?].
For (I), H atoms were included in geometrically calculated positions, with O—H = 0.82 Å and C—H = 0.93 (aromatic), 0.96 (methyl) or 0.97 Å (methylene), and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C,O) for methyl and hydroxyl H, or 1.2Ueq(C,N) for other H atoms.
For (II), the H atoms of the N—H and O—H groups were located in a Fourier map and refined isotropically, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N) or 1.5Ueq(O), respectively. The H atoms of the methyl, methylene and aromatic C—H groups were treated in the same way as for (I).

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. |

2-Ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol belongs to the class of 3-hydroxypiridines, which are the structural analogues of vitamin B6. 2-Ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol shows antioxidant (Klebanov et al., 2001) and antihypoxant (Volchegorskii et al., 2011) activity. Its succinic acid derivative, with a molar ratio of pyridine and succinic acid components of 1:1, is widely used in medical practice as a nootropic (Voronina, 1992, and references therein) and cardioprotective (Sidorenko et al., 2011) drug. Recently, it was found that a succinate salt of 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol, with a molar ratio of pyridine and succinic acid components of 2:1, shows a wide spectrum of biological activities (Gan'shina et al., 2011). It should be noted that the succinic acid component increases the water solubility of 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol and improves the antihypoxic action of 3-hydroxypyridine derivatives (Glushkov et al., 2011).
These pharmaceutical applications of succinic acid derivatives of 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol have initiated their structural investigations. Recently, we have synthesized two salts of 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol, containing pyridine and succinic acid components in a molar ratio of 1:1, and described their crystal structures (Lyakhov et al., 2012). The compounds were found to have the compositions C8H12NO+.C4H5O4- (a hydrogen succinate salt) and 2(C8H12NO+).C4H4O42-.C4H6O4 (a succinate salt with co-crystallized succinic acid molecules). However, no crystal data have been published for the succinate salt with a molar ratio of components of 2:1, nor for 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol itself [Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), Version 5.33, November 2011; Allen, 2002].
The aim of this work was to investigate the crystal structure of pure 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol, (I) (Fig. 1), and to synthesize and structurally characterize its succinate derivative bis(2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium) succinate, (II) (Fig. 2). As the first step of our investigation, we tried to prepare salt (II) by reaction of (I) with succinic acid, taken in molar ratios of (2.5–3):1 in organic solvents (acetone or propan-2-ol). However, crystallization of the reaction mixture gave only one crystalline product, bis(2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium) succinate–succinic acid (1/1), (III), which was investigated earlier (Lyakhov et al., 2012). Our next study showed that salt (II) could be obtained by melting equimolar amounts of (I) and (III) (see Experimental).
Compound (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with Z = 4. The asymmetric unit comprises one molecule of 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol, and bond lengths and angles lie in expected ranges. There are intermolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) between the hydroxyl H atoms and the pyridine ring N atoms, linking the molecules into polymeric chains extending along the c axis (Fig. 3). There are also C—H···π interactions between methylene atom H7A of one molecule and the pyridine ring of another molecule at (1 + x, y, z), with distances H7A···Cg = 2.97 Å and C7···Cg = 3.59 Å, and angle C7—H7A···Cg = 123°, and with the angle between the H7A···Cg vector and the normal to the pyridine ring plane being ca 2° (Cg denotes the centroid of the pyridine ring). These weak interactions also combine the molecules into polymeric chains extending along the a axis (Fig. 4), connecting the above-mentioned hydrogen-bonded polymeric chains into layers parallel to the ac plane.
Compound (II) is also monoclinic, with the same space group P21/c. The asymmetric unit contains one 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium cation and one-half of a fully deprotonated succinate anion. All atoms occupy general sites. The geometry of the 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium cation is close to that of the 2-ethyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol molecule in (I). The succinate anion is centrosymmetric, and the bond lengths and valence angles are in the expected ranges. In the carboxylate groups, bonds C10—O1 and C10—O2 are close in length, being 1.2449 (16) and 1.2472 (18) Å, respectively. As expected, the non-H skeleton of the succinate anion shows a planar configuration, corresponding to non-crystallographic symmetry C2h, with an r.m.s. deviation from planarity of ca 0.066 Å (Pilati & Forni, 1998). This structural feature is driven by the stable planar conformation of the succinate derivatives, combined with directional hydrogen-bonding interactions in the crystal structure of (II).
In the crystal structure of (II), all succinate O atoms are involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 2, Fig. 5). Each anion is bonded to four 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium cations via N—H···O hydrogen bonds with the pyridine ring H atoms, and O—H···O hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl H atoms. These bonds are responsible for formation of polymeric chains extending along the [101] direction. The chains are located around the planes y = 0 and y = 1/2. An arrangement of the chains located around the plane y = 1/2 is shown in Fig. 6. In the chains, two 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridinium cations interact with two carboxylate groups of two succinate anions to form centrosymmetric R44(18) ring motifs (Bernstein et al., 1995). The chains are linked together by non-classical C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 5) between a pyridine ring H atom and the hydroxyl group O atom of a neighbouring cation to give a three-dimensional network.
There are π–π interactions in (II) between the pyridine rings, with a centroid-to-centroid (Cg···Cgv) distance of 3.70 Å [symmetry code: (v) 2 - x, 1 - y, 2 - z] and an offset of 1.55 Å. They are responsible for the formation of cationic dimers (Fig. 6). There are also C—H···π interactions between methylene atom H11B of the succinate anion and the pyridine ring of the cation at (1 - x, 1 - y, 1 - z), with distances H11B···Cg = 2.78 Å and C11···Cg = 3.71 Å, and angle C11—H11B···Cg = 161°, and with the angle between the H11B···Cg vector and the normal to the pyridine ring plane being ca 11°. Each succinate anion is bonded to two cations due to these interactions. The combined action of these π–π and C—H···π contacts links the cations and anions into polymeric chains, extending along the [101] direction (Fig. 6).
