The ephemeral dihydrate of sulfanilic acid.
Acta Crystallographica. Section C, Structural Chemistry 2018 January 2
Evaporation of an aqueous solution of sulfanilic acid (systematic name: 4-aminobenzene-1-sulfonic acid) at 273 K affords a crystalline dihydrate, C6 H7 NO3 S·2H2 O. The organic molecule exists as a zwitterion; two zwitterions are aligned in an antiparallel fashion about a crystallographic centre of inversion. They interact directly via two N-H...O hydrogen bonds between the ammonium group of one zwitterion and the sulfonate group of its symmetry-related counterpart, and their aromatic rings are π-stacked, with an interplanar distance of 3.533 (3) Å. One of the cocrystallized water molecules connects the resulting pairs into layers and the second crosslinks the layers into a three-dimensional network. All H atoms connected to N or O atoms find acceptors in suitable geometries. In the resulting crystal, polar and hydrogen-bond-dominated slabs alternate with stacks of organic arene rings. Although the new dihydrate shows efficient space filling, with a packing coefficient of 75.7%, it is unstable and undergoes fast desolvation at room temperature. In this process, the orthorhombic ansolvate forms as a pure phase.
