Crystal structure of tertiarybutyl ammonium bis[(naphthalene-2,3-diolato)-borate] dimethyl sulfoxide solvate

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, ? = 91.050(4)0, ß = 109.419(4)0, ? = 94.574(2)0, Z = 2, and V = 1298.2(2)Å3. 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. © 2019 The Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry
