Abstract:The title salt consists of a dimethylammonium cation (Me2NH2
+), an hydrogenoxalate anion (HC2O4
−), and half a molecule of oxalic acid (H2C2O4) situated about an inversion center. They are linked together through intermolecular hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional bilayer-like self-assembly.
“…Our group has been working on the interactions between alkylammonium ions with oxalic acid, and we have recently reported the crystal structure of (H 3 C) 2 NH + ÁHC 2 O 4 À Á-0.5H 2 C 2 O 4 (Diallo et al, 2015). Numerous other reports have described crystal structures containing acidic or neutral oxalate molecules interacting with a protonated amine, see for example: Vaidhyanathan et al (2002); Braga et al (2013); Said et al (2006); Hathwar et al (2010); Matulková et al (2008); Olenik et al (2003); Anda et al (2004).…”
In the title salt, [Fe(C5H5)(C8H13N)](HC2O4), the anions are linked via strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into linear [100] chains. The cations connect to the anion through bifurcated N—H⋯(O,O′) hydrogen bonds.

“…Oxalis corniculata, so called cat eaten plant in Korea, is different in color in green and smaller size compared to O. triangularis. The organic compound oxalic acid is isolated by François, Switzerland in 1773 from the wood-sorrel including plant O. corniculata and its crystal structure is revealed recently [11]. The oxalic acid is highly acidic which its pKa is 1.25 and 4.14 because it contains two carboxylate moieties [12].…”
Antimicrobial effects of various plants have been widely used to prevent diseases. Antibacterial activity in the extracts of Oxalis triangularis against five Gram-positive bacteria and three Gram-negative bacteria was investigated. The extracts of O. triangularis were tested the antibacterial activity against several Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria. The antibacterial activity was tested in the heat-treated extracts from leaves of O. triangularis as well as in the extracts of the various pH by NaOH addition. The extracts from leaves, stems, roots, and buds of O. triangularis showed broad spectrum antibacterial activity against all bacteria tested including Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. The heat-treated extracts from leaves of O. triangularis showed the similar antibacterial activity. However, the antibacterial activity dramatically disappeared by pH change of the Oxalis extracts. These results indicated that the broad spectrum antibacterial activity in O. triangularis is from water soluble, heat-stable substances active only in acidic pH condition. Therefore, the antibacterial substances would be oxalic acid or oxalate compounds which are abundant in Oxalis family plants.
