Abstract
Compound 1-Methyl-3-(2-pyridyl)imidazolium hexafluorophosphate was crystallized in monoclinic system with space group P21/c and unit cell parameters a=7.3740(8) Å, b=15.5931(16) Å, c=10.4787(11) Å, β= 105.3102°, and ν=1162.12Å3. The obtained solid state structure of 1-Methyl-3-(2-pyridyl)imidazolium hexafluorophosphate shows CH⋯F type weak interactions and was analyzed.
Highlights
The chemistry of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) has become emerged field after the crystal structure of free 1,3-diadamantyl imidazol-2-ylidene was first reported in 1991 by Arduengo III et al [1–3]
The solid state structure of 1-Methyl-3-(2-Pyridyl)imidazolium hexafluorophosphate has been discussed by using single crystal X-ray diffraction study
Summary
The chemistry of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) has become emerged field after the crystal structure of free 1,3-diadamantyl imidazol-2-ylidene was first reported in 1991 by Arduengo III et al [1–3]. The chemical durability of NHC encouraged the chemist to study their reactivity with inorganic and organic compounds. The synthesis of NHC normally had been done by removal of C-2 proton of imidazolium salt with a suitable base. Many examples of imidazolium salts were synthesized and their corresponding NHC and NHC-metal compounds were studied [4, 5]. The interesting criteria of the imidazole are that, by tuning the substitution on nitrogen center at the imidazole ring, different types of functionalized imidazolium salts have been synthesized [6–9]. The modified synthesis of 1-Methyl-3-(2-pyridyl)imidazolium hexafluorophosphate (1) and its crystal structure have been discussed
