Source of materials

Amidinothiourea (0.25 mmol, A. R.), sulfanilic acid (0.25 mmol, A. R.) and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (25% aqueous solution) were dissolved in small amount of water/ethanol (v/v, 1:2) to yield a clear solution with the molar ratio of 1:1:2. After stirring 1 h, the solution was set aside to generate yellow block crystals of the title compound after about 15 days.

Experimentaldetails

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. One of the four carbon chains of tetrabutylammonium cation is disordered and has been split into two sets of positions (Table 2).

Comment

Amidinothiourea, which is a medical intermediate of famotidine [4], can be utilized to obtain metal-organic frameworks with different metal ions [5]. However, the pure organic inclusion compounds involving amidinothiourea are rarely reported. In fact, amidinothiourea can be regarded as a planar molecule that tends to form varied hydrogen bonding interactions because of its functional groups. Based on this, sulfanilic acid was used to interact with 1-(diaminomethylene)thiourea to generate a new crystal structure with the guidance of the guest template of tetrabutylammonium.

In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, there are two neutral 1-(diaminomethylene)thiourea molecules, one independent sulfanilate and one disordered tetrabutylammonium cation. Clearly, sulfanilic acid becomes the related anion by losing its proton and tetrabutylammonium cation is the counterion to balance the negative charge. Observing the hydrogen-bonded pattern of the structure, it can be seen that the two amidinothiourea molecules firstly interact with each other to generate a dimer by a pair of N–H⋯N hydrogen bonds, and the dimers further link with each other to generate hydrogen-bonded ribbons by N–H⋯S hydrogen bonding. Consecutively, with the help of N–H⋯N and N–H⋯O acceptor hydrogen bonds generated by sulfanilate anion and amidinothiourea molecules, the ribbons mentioned above finally form the 3D hydrogen-bonded framework with square-like channels and the tetrabutylammonium cations are accommodated among the channels to generate the stable crystal structure of the inclusion compound.

Obviously, the N–H group of 1-(diaminomethylene)thiourea is a good actor to form various hydrogen bonds. In fact, the N–H group can generate lots of interesting crystal structures [6]. Thus it can be seen that 1-(diaminomethylene)thiourea is a qualified host molecule to interact with the guest tetraalkylammonium template to obtain novel inclusion compounds with the existence of the ancillary molecules.
