In the title compounds, 4-carboxy­anilinium bromide, C7H8NO2+·Br, (I), and 4-acetyl­anilinium bromide, C8H10NO+·Br, (II), each asymmetric unit contains a discrete cation with a protonated amino group and a halide anion. Both crystal structures are characterized by two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded networks. The ions in (I) are connected via N—H...Br, N—H...O and O—H...Br hydrogen bonds, with three characteristic graph-set motifs, viz. C(8), C21(4) and R32(8). The centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded R22(8) dimer motif characteristic of carboxylic acids is absent. The ions in (II) are connected via N—H...Br and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, with two characteristic graph-set motifs, viz. C(8) and R42(8). The significance of this study lies in its illustration of the differences between the supra­molecular aggregations in two similar compounds. The presence of the methyl group in (II) at the site corresponding to the hydroxyl group in (I) results in a significantly different hydrogen-bonding arrangement.

Comment top

The synthesis of salts provides pharmaceutical scientists with the opportunity to modify the physicochemical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) or potential drug substances. The salt form can influence the range of properties, such as aqueous solubility, melting point, hygroscopicity, dissolution rate and crystallinity (Gould, 1986; Bastin et al., 2000). The title compounds were originally investigated during salt screening of aromatic monoamines and represent a part of our research into intermolecular interactions in hydrogen-bonded ionic crystals of acid salts (Cinčić & Kaitner, 2007, 2008). 4-Aminobenzoic (PABA) acid is widely known as bacterial vitamin H and as one of the components of the vitamin B complex. It is also an important biological molecule, acting as an antagonist to the action of sulfanilamide drugs in competition for essential growth metabolites, as well as being an essential bacterial cofactor involved in the synthesis of folic acid (Woods, 1940; Brown et al., 1961). 4-Aminoacetophenone has been less extensively studied than PABA, but its derivatives have been widely studied. In the present study, we chose 4-aminoacetophenone as another compound containing both amino and carbonyl groups. The presence of the methyl group in (II) at the site corresponding to the hydroxyl group in (I) results in different crystal packing and hydrogen-bonding arrangements, as described below.

In the title compounds, 4-carboxyanilinium bromide, (I), and 4-acetylanilinium bromide, (II), the bond lengths and angles are all normal for their types (Allen et al., 1987). The asymmetric unit of (I) and (II) contains a halide anion and a discrete cation with a protonated amino group (Figs. 1 and 2). Compound (I) is isostructural with the analogous chloride salt (Colapietro et al., 1980). However, that study was concerned primarily with the detailed geometry of the aryl ring in the presence of two substituents with markedly different electron donor/acceptor properties, whereas the hydrogen bonding was discussed only rather briefly. Moreover, the precision of the present study is considerably higher, with a lower R index, despite a considerably higher ratio of data to parameters (15.8 versus 12.7) and with s.u.s on the ring bond angles ca 0.1 times those reported previously. Because of the difference in anionic radii, the volume of the unit cell in (I) is about 37 Å3 larger than that of the chloride salt. Compound (II) is not isostructural with that of the chloride analogue, which crystallizes as a monohydrate (Ersanlı et al., 2004).

In (I), the ions are connected into a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network parallel to the (010) plane via N—H···Br, N—H···O and O—H···Br hydrogen bonds. There are no centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded dimers between the carboxylic acid groups of adjacent 4-carboxyanilinium cations, which is a characteristic feature found in most salts of 3- and 4-aminobenzoic acid (Cambridge Structural Database, Version?; Allen, 2002). The carbonyl O atom participates in hydrogen bonding with another neighbouring cation through an N—H···O hydrogen bond. This interaction links the glide-plane related cations into zigzag chains which run parallel to the [001] direction and which can be described by a graph-set motif of C(8) (Bernstein et al., 1995) (Fig. 3). The carboxylic H atom participates in hydrogen bonding with a neighbouring anion through an O—H···Br hydrogen bond. All ammonium group H atoms are involved in hydrogen bonds with two different Br- ions and with the carbonyl O atom of a neighbouring cation, while each anion accepts three hydrogen bonds. The two ammonium–anion interactions link the anions and cations in an alternating fashion into extended chains along the [100] direction which can be described by a graph-set motif of C21(4). The noncentrosymetric hydrogen-bonded rings formed by adjacent 4-carboxyanilinium cations and one halide anion can be described by the graph-set motif R32(8). The aggregation of ring and chain motifs results in a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded sheet-like structure overall (Fig. 3). Adjacent sheets are stacked in the [010] direction to give a three-dimensional framework, where the interplanar distance between the aromatic rings of each sheet is ca 3.38 Å. The interplanar distance between aromatic rings of each sheet in the isostructural chloride salt is, unexpectedly, almost the same at ca 3.33 Å, and adjacent sheets are further linked with interlayer N—H···Cl interaction.

Because of the different functional group on atom C7 of (I) and (II), the supramolecular structure of (II), as expected, differs from that of (I). Fig. 4 clearly compares the packing arrangement of both compounds. The ions of (II) are connected into a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network, this time parallel to the (102) plane, via N—H···Br and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 2). As in (I), all ammonium group H atoms are involved in hydrogen bonds with two different Br- ions and with the carbonyl O atom of a neighbouring cation, while each anion accepts two hydrogen bonds. Also as in (I), the carbonyl O atom participates in hydrogen bonding with another neighbouring cation through an N—H···O hydrogen bond. This interaction links the glide-plane related cations into zigzag chains which run parallel to the [001] direction and which can be described by a graph-set motif of C(8) (Fig. 5). The centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded rings formed by adjacent cations in the chains can be described by the graph-set motif R42(8). The aggregation of ring and chain motifs in (II) also leads to a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded sheet-like structure (Fig. 5). Adjacent sheets are stacked in the [102] direction to give a three-dimensional framework, where weak interlayer C—H···Br interactions are present [C6···Br1(x + 1, y, z) = 3.854 (3) Å and C8···Br1(x + 1, -y + 1/2, z - 1/2) = 3.809 (4) Å]. No intermolecular ππ interactions are evident in either crystal structure. The shortest centroid-to-centroid distances in (I) and (II) are ca 4.06 and 3.86 Å, respectively.

Experimental top

For the preparation of (I), 3-aminobenzoic acid (100 mg, 0,73 mmol) was dissolved in hot ethanol (2 ml). The clear solution was added to aqueous hydrobromic acid (2 ml, 2 M) and cooled to room temperature. Colourless crystals of (I) were grown by slow evaporation.

For the preparation of (II), 4-aminoacetophenone (100 mg, 0.74 mmol) was dissolved in hot mixture of ethanol and propan-2-ol (3 ml; 2:1 v/v). The clear solution was added to hydrobromic acid (1 ml, 2 M) and cooled to room temperature. Colourless crystals of (II) were grown by slow evaporation.

Crystals of (I) and (II) were collected by vacuum filtration, washed with cold acetone and dried in air. In a nitrogen atmosphere, (I) and (II) melt at 524 K and 472 K, respectively.

Refinement top

For (I), all N– and O-bound H atoms, and for (II), all N-bound H atoms, were located in difference Fourier maps. For both compounds, the positions and isotropic displacement parameters of the N-bound H atoms were refined, giving a range of N—H distances of 0.81 (4)–0.90 (4) Å. The hydroxyl H atom in (I) was fixed at the position found from the difference map, giving O—H = 0.78 Å. H atoms bonded to C atoms were treated as riding, with C—H = 0.93 Å (aromatic) or 0.96 Å (methyl), and with Uiso(H) = kUeq(C), where k = 1.5 for methyl H and 1.2 for aromatic H.

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.

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.
