Abstract

The crystal structures of the proton-transfer compounds of ferron (8-hydroxy-7-iodoquinoline-5-sulfonic acid) with 4-chloroaniline and 4-bromoaniline, namely 4-chloroanilinium 8-hydroxy-7-iodoquinoline-5-sulfonate monohydrate, C(6)H(7)ClN(+) x C(9)H(5)INO(4)S(-) x H(2)O, and 4-bromoanilinium 8-hydroxy-7-iodoquinoline-5-sulfonate monohydrate, C(6)H(7)BrN(+) x C(9)H(5)INO(4)S(-) x H(2)O, have been determined. The compounds are isomorphous and comprise sheets of hydrogen-bonded cations, anions and water molecules which are extended into a three-dimensional framework structure through centrosymmetric R(2)(2)(10) O-H...N hydrogen-bonded ferron dimer interactions.
