Resumen

The title compound, C 16 H 20 N 2 2+ ·2Br - ·H 2 O (1) is a member of the class of compounds called viologens. Viologens are quaternary salts of di­pyridyls and are especially useful as redox indicators as a result of their large negative one-electron reduction potentials. Compound 1 consists of a dication composed of a pair of 4-methyl­pyridine rings mutually joined at the 2-position, with a dihedral angle between the pyridine rings of 62.35 (4)°. In addition, the rings are tethered via the pyridine nitro­gen atoms by a tetra­methyl­ene bridge. Charge balance is provided by a pair of bromide anions, which are hydrogen bonded to a single water mol­ecule [D O⋯Br = 3.3670 (15) and 3.3856 (15) Å]. The crystal structure of 1, details of an improved synthesis, and a full analysis of its NMR spectra are presented.
