(E)-1-Methyl-4-[2-(2-naphth-yl)vin-yl]pyridinium iodide.


ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(18)H(16)N(+)·I(-), the cation is disordered over two orientations related by a 180° rotation about its long axis with occupancies of 0.554?(7) and 0.446?(7). Both disorder components exist in an E configuration. The dihedral angle between the pyridinium ring and the naphthalene ring system is 4.7?(6)° in the major disorder component and 1.6?(8)° in the minor component. In the crystal structure, centrosymmetrically related cations are stacked along the a axis, with significant ?-? inter-actions between the pyridinium ring and the naphthalene ring system [centroid-centroid distance = 3.442?(9)?Å]. The iodide ions are located between adjacent columns of cations. The cations are linked to the iodide ions by C-H?I inter-actions. Weak C-H?? inter-actions involving the methyl group are also observed.
