9-(2-Tertbutylphenoxycarbonyl)-10-methylacridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate was synthesized by treatment of 2-tertbutylphenyl acridine-9-carboxylate [obtained in the same way as described elsewhere (Sikorski et al., 2006a)], dissolved in anhydrous dichloromethane, with a fivefold molar excess of methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, dissolved in the same solvent, under an Ar atmosphere at room temperature for 3 h. The crude salt was purified by repeated precipitation from ethanol-diethyl ether (1/20 v/v) solution (yield 63%). Pale-yellow crystals suitable for X-ray investigations were grown from absolute ethanol (m.p. = 502–504 K).
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H distances of 0.95 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C), or C—H = 0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for the methyl group.
Phenyl 10-alkylacridinium-9-carboxylates have been successfully applied as chemiluminescent indicators or chemiluminogenic fragments of chemiluminescent labels in assays of biologically and environmentally important entities (Yang et al., 2002; Adamczyk et al., 2004). The reactions of the above-mentioned cations with hydrogen peroxide in alkaline media produce light, and determination of its intensity enables labeled entities or entities present in the medium to be assayed quantitatively at the attomole level (Roda et al., 2003). Our own investigations (Rak et al., 1999) and those of others (Dodeigne et al., 2000; Razawi & McCapra, 2000; Zomer & Jacquemijns, 2001) have revealed that oxidation of these compounds is accompanied by the removal of the phenyl fragment and conversion of the rest of the molecule to electronically excited, light-emitting 10-alkyl-9-acridinones. It may thus be expected that the efficiency of chemiluminescence is affected by changes in the constitution of the phenyl ester fragment. In order to find out whether this is indeed the case investigations were undertaken on phenyl 10-methylacridinium-9-carboxylates differently substituted in the phenyl fragment. Alkyl-substituted representatives of this group of compounds were selected for these investigations principally because it is relatively easy to synthesize them and to influence their structure and features. The structure of 9-(2-methylphenoxycarbonyl-acridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate was described in an earlier report (Sikorski et al., 2006b). Here the crystal structure of the title compound is presented.
Parameters characterizing the geometries of the central acridine ring and the ester fragment are typical of acridine-based derivatives (Meszko et al., 2002; Sikorski et al., 2006a,b). With respective average deviations from planarity of 0.009 and 0.002 Å, the acridine and benzene ring systems in the cation are oriented at 53.7 (1)° to each other (Fig. 1). The carboxyl group is twisted at an angle of 60.6 (1)° relative to the acridine skeleton. The mean planes of the acridine moieties lie either parallel or are inclined at an angle of 5.4 (1)° in the lattice. The benzene rings are either parallel or inclined at an angle of 72.4 (1)°.
All the O atoms and two F atoms of the trifluoromethanesulfonate anions are respectively involved in weak C–H···O and C–H···F hydrogen bonds with cations (Fig. 3). Adjacent cations are linked through C—H···π (phenyl) interactions (Figs. 2 and 3) and N···O (carbonyl) contacts [N10···O17 = 2.87 (1) Å (symmetry code: (vii) x, 1/2 - y, z - 1/2); Fig. 3]. Adjacent anions are linked through O···F contacts [O32···F34 = 2.94 (1) Å (symmetry code: (viii) x, 3/2 - y, z - 1/2); Fig. 2].
All interactions demonstrated were found by PLATON (Spek, 2003). The C–H···O (Bianchi et al., 2004; Steiner, 1999), C–H···F (Bianchi et al., 2004; Lyssenko & Antipin, 2004) and C–H···π (Takahashi et al., 2001) interactions exhibit a hydrogen-bond-type nature. The C–F···O interactions between anions (Allen et al., 1997; Lyssenko & Antipin, 2004) identified as O···F contacts, and also the N···O (carbonyl) contacts between cations (Lee et al., 2003), should be of an attractive nature.
The crystal structure is stabilized by a network of the aforementioned short-range interactions, as well as by long-range electrostatic interactions between ions.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |

Phenyl 10-alkylacridinium-9-carboxylates have been successfully applied as chemiluminescent indicators or chemiluminogenic fragments of chemiluminescent labels in assays of biologically and environmentally important entities (Yang et al., 2002; Adamczyk et al., 2004). The reactions of the above-mentioned cations with hydrogen peroxide in alkaline media produce light, and determination of its intensity enables labeled entities or entities present in the medium to be assayed quantitatively at the attomole level (Roda et al., 2003). Our own investigations (Rak et al., 1999) and those of others (Dodeigne et al., 2000; Razawi & McCapra, 2000; Zomer & Jacquemijns, 2001) have revealed that oxidation of these compounds is accompanied by the removal of the phenyl fragment and conversion of the rest of the molecule to electronically excited, light-emitting 10-alkyl-9-acridinones. It may thus be expected that the efficiency of chemiluminescence is affected by changes in the constitution of the phenyl ester fragment. In order to find out whether this is indeed the case investigations were undertaken on phenyl 10-methylacridinium-9-carboxylates differently substituted in the phenyl fragment. Alkyl-substituted representatives of this group of compounds were selected for these investigations principally because it is relatively easy to synthesize them and to influence their structure and features. The structure of 9-(2-methylphenoxycarbonyl-acridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate was described in an earlier report (Sikorski et al., 2006b). Here the crystal structure of the title compound is presented.
Parameters characterizing the geometries of the central acridine ring and the ester fragment are typical of acridine-based derivatives (Meszko et al., 2002; Sikorski et al., 2006a,b). With respective average deviations from planarity of 0.009 and 0.002 Å, the acridine and benzene ring systems in the cation are oriented at 53.7 (1)° to each other (Fig. 1). The carboxyl group is twisted at an angle of 60.6 (1)° relative to the acridine skeleton. The mean planes of the acridine moieties lie either parallel or are inclined at an angle of 5.4 (1)° in the lattice. The benzene rings are either parallel or inclined at an angle of 72.4 (1)°.
All the O atoms and two F atoms of the trifluoromethanesulfonate anions are respectively involved in weak C–H···O and C–H···F hydrogen bonds with cations (Fig. 3). Adjacent cations are linked through C—H···π (phenyl) interactions (Figs. 2 and 3) and N···O (carbonyl) contacts [N10···O17 = 2.87 (1) Å (symmetry code: (vii) x, 1/2 - y, z - 1/2); Fig. 3]. Adjacent anions are linked through O···F contacts [O32···F34 = 2.94 (1) Å (symmetry code: (viii) x, 3/2 - y, z - 1/2); Fig. 2].
All interactions demonstrated were found by PLATON (Spek, 2003). The C–H···O (Bianchi et al., 2004; Steiner, 1999), C–H···F (Bianchi et al., 2004; Lyssenko & Antipin, 2004) and C–H···π (Takahashi et al., 2001) interactions exhibit a hydrogen-bond-type nature. The C–F···O interactions between anions (Allen et al., 1997; Lyssenko & Antipin, 2004) identified as O···F contacts, and also the N···O (carbonyl) contacts between cations (Lee et al., 2003), should be of an attractive nature.
The crystal structure is stabilized by a network of the aforementioned short-range interactions, as well as by long-range electrostatic interactions between ions.
