Electrostatic interactions between localized integral charges make the stability and structure of highly charged small and rigid organics intriguing. Can σ/π-electron delocalization compensate reduced conformational freedom by lowering the repulsion between identical charges? The crystal structure of the title salt, C14H16N42+·2CF3SO3−, (2), is described and compared with that of the 2,2′′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl) derivative, (4). The conformations of the dications and their interactions with neighbouring trifluoromethanesulfonate anions are first analyzed from the standpoint of formal electrostatic effects. Neither cation exhibits any geometrical strain induced by the intrinsic repulsion between the positive charges. In contrast, the relative orientation of the imidazolium rings [i.e. antifor (2) andsynfor (4)] is controlled by different configurations of the interactions with the closest trifluoromethanesulfonate anions. The long-range arrangement is also found to be specific: beyond the formal electrostatic packing, C—H...O and C—H...F contacts have no definite `hydrogen-bond' character but allow the delineation of layers, which are either pleated or flat in the packing of (2) or (4), respectively.

The barriers to cyclopentadienyl ring rotation in the solid phase have been measured by spin-lattice relaxation time methods for the organometallic complexes CpMn(CO)3 (7.24 kJ mol−1), CpRe(CO)3 (7.15 kJ mol−1), and CpV(CO)4 (7.07 kJ mol−1), where Cp = η5-C5H5. Nonbonded atom–atom potential calculations of the barriers in these complexes and in BzCr(CO)3 (Bz = η6-C6H6) show that the molecular conformation of the Mn and Re compounds is determined by crystal packing forces and that concerted ring motions are possible for the cyclopentadienyl complexes, but not for the benzene chromium tricarbonyl.
