Crystal structure of 2-cyano-1-methyl-pyridinium perchlorate.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, C7H7N2 (+)·ClO4 (-), comprises two independent formula units. The solid-state structure comprises corrugated layers of cations and of anions, approximately parallel to (010). The supra-molecular layers are stabilized and connected by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonding to consolidate a three-dimensional architecture. A close pyridin-ium-perchlorate N⋯O contact [2.867 (5) Å] is noted. The crystal was refined as an inversion twin.

Experimental. The diffraction data were obtained from 3 sets of 400 frames, each of width 0.5° in ω, collected at φ = 0.00, 90.00 and 180.00° and 2 sets of 800 frames, each of width 0.45° in φ, collected at ω = -30.00 and 210.00°. The scan time was 15 sec/frame. Analysis of 3152 reflections having I/σ(I) > 13 and chosen from the full data set with CELL_NOW (Sheldrick, 2008a) showed the crystal to belong to the monoclinic system and to be twinned by a 180° rotation about c*. The raw data were processed using the multi-component version of SAINT under control of the two-component orientation file generated by CELL_NOW.

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. H-atoms attached to carbon were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.95 - 0.98 Å). All were included as riding contributions with isotropic displacement parameters 1.2 - 1.5 times those of the attached atoms. Refined as a 2-component twin.
