Abstract
- A novel anhydrous 1:1 and 2:1 complexes of quinoline betaine (QB) with perchloric acid have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction. The 1:1 complex betaine is protonated and the carboxylate group forms a hydrogen bond with the ClO4 ion: O⋯O distance is 2.820(3) A˚. In the 2:1 complex, the carboxylate group of a pair of QB molecules are bridged by a proton to form dimeric cation in non-planar configuration, [(QB)2H]+, featuring a very strong hydrogen bond of the length 2.453(3) A˚. The FTIR spectrum of the 1:1 complex shows a strong absorption at ca. 3100 cm−1 due to the νOH vibration. Broad and intense absorption in the 1500–400 cm−1 region in the spectrum of the 2:1 complex is typical for the very short hydrogen bonds. B3LYP calculations predict slightly shorter hydrogen bonds with different orientation of the ring vs. COOH group than these observed in crystals. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
