Description:
Single crystals of (1,3-diamino-5-azaniumyl-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol-κ3O2,O4,O6)(1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol-κ3O2,O4,O6)lithium(I) diiodide dihydrate, [Li(C6H16N3O3)(C6H15N3O3)]I2·2H2O or [Li(Htaci)(taci)]I2·2H2O (taci is 1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol), (I), bis(1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol-κ3O2,O4,O6)sodium(I) iodide, [Na(C6H15N3O3)2]I or [Na(taci)2]I, (II), and bis(1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol-κ3O2,O4,O6)potassium(I) iodide, [K(C6H15N3O3)2]I or [K(taci)2]I, (III), were grown by diffusion of MeOH into aqueous solutions of the complexes. The structures of the Na and K complexes are isotypic. In all three complexes, the taci ligands adopt a chair conformation with axial hydroxy groups, and the metal cations exhibit exclusive O-atom coordination. The six O atoms of the resultingMO6unit define a centrosymmetric trigonal antiprism with approximateD3dsymmetry. The interligand O...O distances increase significantly in the order Li 〈 Na 〈 K. The structure of (I) exhibits a complex three-dimensional network ofR—NH2—H...NH2—R,R—O—H...NH2—RandR—O—H...O(H)—H...NH2—Rhydrogen bonds. The structures of the Na and K complexes consist of a stack of layers, in which each taci ligand is bonded to three neighboursviapairwise O—H...NH2interactions between vicinal HO—CH—CH—NH2groups.
