Guanidinium 2-Carboxy-6-Nitrobenzoate Monohydrate: A Two-Dimensional Hydrogen-Bonded Network Structure

Abstract

In the structure of the title compound, CH6N3+ . C8H4NO6- . H2O, obtained from the reaction of guanidine carbonate with 3-nitrophthalic acid, the 2-carboxylic acid group is deprotonated and participates in an asymmetric cyclic R2/1(6) hydrogen-bonding associatiuon with the guanidine cation together with a bridging water molecule of solvation. A conjoint R2/1(7) facial association involving a nitro O-atom acceptor together with a further five guanidinium N-H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as a strong carboxyl-water interaction [2.528(3) Ang.], give a two-dimensiional network structure
