Abstract
The structures of two compounds of L-tartaric acid with quinoline, viz. the proton-transfer compound quinolinium hydrogen (2R,3R)-tartrate monohydrate, C9H8N+.C4H5O6-.H2O, (I), and the anhydrous non-proton-transfer adduct with quinaldic acid, bis(quinolinium-2-carboxylate) (2R,3R)-tartaric acid, 2C10H7NO2.C4H6O6, (II), have been determined at 130 K. Compound (I) has a three-dimensional honeycomb substructure formed from head-to-tail hydrogen-bonded hydrogen tartrate anions and water molecules. The stacks of pi-bonded quinolinium cations are accommodated within the channels and are hydrogen bonded to it peripherally. Compound (II) has a two-dimensional network structure based on pseudo-centrosymmetric head-to-tail hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers comprising zwitterionic quinaldic acid species which are interlinked by tartaric acid molecules.
