Flupentixol tartrate

In the title salt, C23H26F3N2OS(+)·C4H5O6 (-) [systematic name: 1-(2-hy-droxy-eth-yl)-4-[3-(2-(tri-fluoro-meth-yl)thioxanthen-9-yl-idene)prop-yl]piperazin-1-ium 3-carb-oxy-2,3-di-hydroxy-pro-pion-ate], the monoprotonated piperazine ring in the cation adopts a chair conformation, while the thio-pyran ring of the thioxanthene group has a boat conformation. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two outer aromatic rings of the thioxanthene groups is 31.6 (2)°. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked via O-H⋯O, N-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along [100]. In addition, R (2) 2(7), R (2) 2(11), R (2) 2(10) and R (2) 2(12) graph-set ring motifs involving the anions, and R (2) 2(9) graph-set ring motifs involving both the cations and anions are observed. The three F atoms of the tri-fluoro-methyl group are disordered over two sets of sites and the individual atoms were refined with occupancy ratios of 0.54 (6):0.46 (6), 0.72 (2):0.28 (2) and 0.67 (3):0.33 (3).
