Abstract
The title compound {systematic name: [1-(9,9-dioxo-10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)-2-propyl]dimethylammonium 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate}, C17H21N2O2S+·C6H2N3O7−, is a molecular salt arising from the reaction of racemic dioxopromethazine and picric acid, crystallizing with three ion pairs in the asymmetric unit. The conformations of the three distinct cations are very similar and each associates with a nearby picrate anion by way of hydrogen bonds. In one case, a simple N—H⋯O link occurs to the acceptor deprotonated phenol O atom; the other two ion pairs are linked by bifurcated N—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds, where the second O atom is part of a nitro group. In the crystal structure, there is weak π–π stacking involving two of the picrate aromatic rings [ring–centroid separation = 3.676 (2) Å].
