Hydrogen bis[2-(4-ammoniophenoxy)acetate] triiodide

Abstract

In the title compound, C16H19N2O6+·I3−, the carboxylate groups of a pair of (4-aminophenoxy) acetate ligands are bridged by an H atom in a rather classical configuration. The H atom is located on an inversion center and the pair of carboxylate groups are centrosymmetrically related with an O...O distance of 2.494 (5) Å. The I3− anion is also located on an inversion center. In the crystal, N—H...O and N—H...I hydrogen-bond interactions build up a three-dimensionnal network.
