The title complex, 2C12H24N+·C6H3Cl2O·C6H2Cl3O·C6H4Cl2O, consists of three different achiral components, dicyclohexylammonium cations, 2,4,6-trichlorophenolate anions and H-atom-bridged 2,4-dichlorophenolate/2,4-dichlorophenol units, held together by O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a chiral hydrogen-bonded ring. A helical cylinder is established by the packing of these rings along a crystallographic 41 screw axes. Helical cylinders may be generated from each other by translation, resulting in the formation of the chiral crystal. Neighbouring parallel helical cylinders are associated by van der Waals inter­actions only.

Introduction top

Most achiral organic compounds tend to crystalize in achiral space groups. However, a few may crystalize in chiral space groups, which is often discovered by accident and is considered as a rare phenomenon (Koshima et al., 1996, 1997; Matsuura & Koshima, 2005). In the literature, there have been a few reports of chiral cocrystals containing di­cyclo­hexyl­ammonium as one of the achiral components (Golobic et al., 1999; Melendez et al. 1996; Trivedi et al., 2004, 2005; Ballabh et al. 2005; Bi et al. 2002).

Experimental top

Synthesis and crystallization top

2,4-Di­chloro­phenol (3.3 g, 200 mmol), di­cyclo­hexyl­amine (3.6 g, 200 mmol) and 2,4,6-tri­chloro­phenol (2.0 g, 100 mmol) were mixed and dissolved in sufficient anhydrous ethanol (20 ml) by heating to 323 K to give a clear solution. Single crystals of (I) were formed by slow evaporation of the solvent after one week at 293 K. IR (KBr): 3040.1, 2941.5, 2862.4, 2547.6, 2461.8, 1631.9, 1607.3, 1447.7, 1291.2, 1050.4, 816.7, 594.0, 554.7, 488.4, 446.5 cm-1. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CD3Cl): δ 1.09–1.99 (m, 20H), 2.85 (m, 2H), 5.721 (s, 2.5H), 6.869 (d, 1H), 7.064 (dd, 1H), 7.184 (s, 1H), 7.307 (d, 1H).

Refinement top

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. The atoms of H1C, H1D and H1 were deduced from an difference electron-density map and refined freely. The other H atoms were placed in calculated positions and allowed to ride on their parent atoms at C—H distances of 0.93 Å for phenyl, 0.97 Å for methyl­ene and 0.98 Å for methine, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq of the parent atoms.

Results and discussion top

The title complex, (I), was synthesized from three achiral compounds, 2,4-di­chloro­phenol, di­hexyl­cyclo­amine and 2,4,6-tri­chloro­phenol (Scheme 1), and it crystallizes in the chiral space group P4122 (Table 1 and Fig. 1). In the asymmetric unit of (I), there are one each of the di­cyclo­hexyl­ammonium and 2,4-di­chloro­phenolate ions, and a half of a 2,4,6-tri­chloro­phenolate ion (Fig. 1). The title complex is built by a combination of two asymmetric units, which may be generated from each other by the C2-symmetry operation taking the centre line (O2—C22—C19—Cl3) of the 2,4,6-tri­chloro­phenolate ion as the axis. This centre line is exactly parallel to the (110) direction. The C21—C22 bond length (Table 2) is much longer than normal aromatic C—C bonds, due to static electronic repulsion between the Cl3 and O2 atoms. This situation is different from that of neutral 2,4,6-tri­chloro­phenol in the solid state (González Martínez & Bernès, 2007), but is similar to those of the 2,3,4,5,6-penta­chloro­phenolate anion (Majerz et al. 1998; Sawka-Dobrowolska et al. 1995). In (I), five molecules of the three different components are associated by hydrogen bonds. Further, the di­cyclo­hexyl­ammonium ion shows a conformation with pseudo-C2 symmetry, taking the mid-line of the C1—N1—C7 isosceles triangle as the axis.

In the title complex, two C2-symmetrically related 2,4-di­chloro­phenolate ions are held together by an extremely short symmetrical hydrogen bond O1···H1···O1(-y + 1, -x+1, -z+1/4) (Fig. 1 and Table 3), with atom H1 located centrally on the C2 symmetry axis. The aromatic ring planes of 2,4-di­chloro­phenolate and its symmetry equivalent at (-y+1, -x+1, -z+1/4) inter­sect on the O1—O1(-y+1, -x+1, -z+1/4) line, with a dihedral angle of 111.5 (6)°. The hydrogen-bonded pair of 2,4-di­chloro­phenolate anions are further combined with two di­cyclo­hexyl­ammonium and one 2,4,6-tri­chloro­phenolate ion by N1—H1C···O1 and N1—H1D···O1 hydrogen bonds (Fig. 1 and Table 3) to form a chiral hydrogen-bonded ring (Fig. 1), which may be described with the graph-set R53(10) (Etter, 1990; Grell et al., 1999), where one 2,4-di­chloro­phenolate ion is acting as a hydrogen-bond donor and the other as an acceptor. The hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors, O1, O1(-y+1, -x+1, -z +1/4), O2, N1, and N1(-y+1, -x+1, -z+1/4), are arranged in a roughly flat penta­gonal geometry. Viewed along the c axis (Fig. 1), the title complex looks like a propeller.

Previously, a survey showed that hydrogen-bonded rings are rarely observed in crystals of chiral molecules (Eppel & Bernstein, 2008); but they are frequently observed in crystals of achiral molecules, bearing an inversion centre. Unfortunately, cases of chiral crystals built of achiral molecules hadn't been distinguished from achiral crystals built of achiral molecules in in the survey. Taking cocrystals containing di­cyclo­hexyl­ammino ions as instances (Golobic et al., 1999; Melendez et al. 1996; Trivedi et al., 2004, 2005; Ballabh et al. 2005; Bi et al. 2002), one might add that hydrogen-bonded rings are rarely observed in chiral crystals, regardless of the chirality of the components involved. And, it is found that the title complex is an exceptional case.

The hydrogen-bonded rings are aligned one after another along the c axis, and successive rings may be symmetry generated from each other by twisting by 90° in the (110) plane and by translating 1/4 the length of the c axis (Fig. 2). Therefore, a helical cylinder of rings is established, parallel to the c axis. Neighbouring helical cylinders are inter­related by translation, resulting in the formation of the chiral crystal. The formation of the chiral cocrystal may be ascribed to the steric hindrance of the bulky di­cyclo­hexyl group, inferred from the mechanism suggested previously (Ueki & Soloshonok, 2009; Lemmerer et al., 2011). There is no strong inter­molecular contact between the successive rings. Neighbouring helical cylinders are associated with each other by van der Waals inter­actions. Due to the steric hindrance, there are no ππ or C—H···π contacts. However, two short Cl···Cl contacts are observed, with separations close to double the van der Waals radius of the Cl atom (Pauling & Pauling, 1975), namely Cl1···Cl4(-y+2, -x+1, -z+1/4) [3.742 (5) Å] and Cl2···Cl2(x, -y, -z+1/2) [3.844 (5) Å].

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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.
