Abstract

2,3-Trimethylene-3,4-dihydroquinazoline shares the heterocyclic core with natural compounds and synthetic drugs. The hydrochloride of the compound forms excellent dihydrate crystals which have allowed us to collect high-resolution X-ray diffraction data and obtain the experimental charge density. The solid may be understood as built up from pairs of heterocyclic cations and chloride anions; a direct hydrogen bond links the halide to the formally cationic pyrimidine NH group. The hydrate water molecules interact with the anions, forming an infinite chain along the crystallographic a axis between the stacks of the heterocyclic cations. Based on the experimental charge density, a dipole moment of 16.1 Debye is calculated for a pair of the hydrogen-bonded quinazolinium cation and the chloride anion in the extended crystal structure.
