Abstract

A new inclusion complex (n-C4H9)4N +C4H3O 4- • C 4H4O4 • (NH2)2CS has been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data: space group P1̄, a = 8.799(2) Å, b = 9.590(1) Å, c = 18.684(4) Å, α = 89.63(1)°, β = 79.56(1)°, γ = 79.74(1)°, V = 1525.2(5) Å3, Z = 2, R 1 = 0.0562 and wR = 0.1033. In the title compound, thiourea molecules, fumaric acid and fumarate anions are joined together by typical O-H•••O, N-H•••O and N-H•••S, plus weak C-H•••O and C-H•••S, hydrogen bonds to generate a hydrogen-bonded layer corresponding to the (100) family of planes. The tetra-n-butylammonium cations are orderly arranged in a sandwich-like packing mode between the stacked layers. The simultaneous presence of different varieties of intermolecular hydrogen bonds is an interesting feature of the title compound. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2007.
