Abstract

L-Tryptophan L-tryptophanium bromide (I) and L-tryptophan L-tryptophanium bromide monohydrate (II) are new salts with (A⋯A+) type dimeric cation. The salt (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P21, Z = 2) and is isostructural with respective chloride (V.V. Ghazaryan et al., Spectrochim. Acta A 136(2015) 743-750), while the salt (II) was obtained previously (T. Takigawa et al., Bull. Chem. Soc. Jap. 39(1966) 2369-2378) and described as hemyhydrate without structure determination. The salt (II) crystallizes in orthorhombic system (space group P212121, Z = 4). The dimeric cations in (I) and (II) are formed by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds with the O⋯O distances equal to 2.538(3) Å and 2.481(3) Å respectively. The infrared and Raman spectra of the crystals are studied and compared with the spectra of L-tryptophan L-tryptophanium chloride and L-tryptophanium bromide.
