AI Article Synopsis
- The salt C(14)H(31)N(2)(+)·C(15)H(9)O(7)(-) was created by reacting quercetin with n-butyl-amine in acetone and hexane.
- The crystal structure reveals that quercetin contributes a hydrogen atom to the nitrogen in the n-butyl-amine compound, leading to stability through various types of hydrogen bonding.
- Quercetin molecules form dimers that connect into a two-dimensional network, with a noted dihedral angle of 19.61° between their ring systems.
Article Abstract
The title salt, C(14)H(31)N(2) (+)·C(15)H(9)O(7) (-), was obtained in the reaction of quercetin with n-butyl-amine in a mixture of acetone and hexane. The crystal structure determination shows that the quercetin donates one of its phenol H atoms to the N-butyl-4-butyl-imino-2-methyl-pentan-2-amine mol-ecule. The crystal structure of the salt is stabilized by intramolecular (N-H⋯N for the cation and O-H⋯O for the anion) and intermolecular hydrogen bonding (N-H⋯O between cation-anion pairs and O-H⋯O between anions). Quercetin molecules form dimers connected into a two-dimensional network. The dihedral angle between the quercetin ring systems is 19.61 (8)°.
