Crystal structure of 2,5-di-hydroxy-terephthalic acid from powder diffraction data.


ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of anhydrous 2,5-dhy-droxy-terephthalic acid, C8H6O6, was solved and refined using laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional techniques. The published structure of 2,5-di-hydroxy-terephthalic acid dihydrate was also optimized. The carb-oxy-lic acid groups form strong hydrogen bonds, which form centrosymmetric rings with graph set R 2 2(8). These hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains along [011]. There is an intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl group and the carbonyl group of the carb-oxy-lic acid. The hydrogen bonding in the dihydrate is very different. Although the intra-molecular hy-droxy/carb-oxy-lic acid hydrogen bond is present, the water mol-ecule acts as an acceptor to the carb-oxy-lic acid and a donor to two other oxygen atoms. The carb-oxy-lic acid groups do not inter-act with each other directly.
