Abstract

Abstract: L-(-)-α-Phenyl ethylamine was reacted with cubane-like dimer of carboxylic 2-naphthoate to afford L-(-)-α-phenyl ethylammonium cubane-like dimer of carboxylic 2-naphthoate with high yield.Crystal structural analysis demonstrates that the hydrogen bonding of N_2A-HN_2B…O_5A and O_1A-HN_1A…O_3A are responsible for the crystal packing,in which N_2A-HN_2B…O_5A connects L-(-)-α-phenyl ethylammonium cation and cubane-like dimer of carboxylic 2-naphthoate.Intermolecular hydrogen bonding of O_1A-H_1AA…O_6A and O_1B-H_1AB…O_6B directs the assembly of two enatiomers of cubane-like dimer of carboxylic 2-naphthoate acid.

Key words: L-(-)-α-phenyl ethylamine, cubane-like dimer of carboxylic 2-naphthoate acid, C₂ symmetry
