Crystal Structure of Tertiarybutyl Ammonium Bis[(naphthalene-2,3-diolato)borate] Dimethyl Sulfoxide Solvate

Abstract

Ammonium The structure of tertiarybutyl ammonium bis[naphthalene-2,3-diolato)borate] dimethyl sulfoxide solvate was determined by X-Ray crystallography. The compound crystallized in a triclinic system, and was characterized to be in the space group P -1, with cell parameters a = 9.6282(9)Å, b = 11.0221(9)Å, c = 13.0273(12)Å, α = 91.050(4) 0 , β = 109.419(4) 0 , γ = 94.574(2) 0 , Z = 2, and V = 1298.2(2)Å 3 . The crystal packing is governed by intermolecular and intramolecular N–H···O hydrogen bonds. The B atom takes a distorted tetrahedral geometry with four O atoms of naphthalene-2,3-diolato ligands.
