Crystal structure of N,N,N′,N′,N′′,N′′-hexamethylguanidinium cyanate 1.5-hydrate

2015

The title hydrated salt, C7H18N3+·OCN−.1.5H2O, was synthesized starting fromN,N,N′,N′,N′′,N′′-hexamethylguanidinium chloride by a twofold anion-exchange reaction. The asymmetric unit contains two cations, two cyanate anions and three water molecules. One cation shows orientational disorder and two sets of N-atom positions were found related by a 60° rotation, with an occupancy ratio of 0.852 (6):0.148 (6). The C—N bond lengths in both guanidinium ions range from 1.329 (2) to 1.358 (10) Å, indicating double-bond character, pointing towards charge delocalization within the NCN planes. Strong O—H...N hydrogen bonds between the crystal water molecules and the cyanate ions and strong O—H...O hyd…
