The title compound tetraphenylborate salt of clonidine (Catapres®), 2-(2,6-dichlorophenylamino)-2-imidazoline tetraphenylborate (3), was prepared in 76 % yield by the reaction of 2-(2,6-dichlorophenylamino)-2-imidazoline hydrochloride (clonidine hydrochloride) (1) with sodium tetraphenylborate (2) in deionized water through anion exchange reaction at ambient temperature. The structure of the title borate salt was characterized by UV, thermal analysis, mass and NMR analyses. White crystals of (3) suitable for an X-ray structural analysis were obtained by slow growing from acetonitrile. The molecular structure of the titled compound (3) was crystallized in the acetonitrile, P21/c, a = 9.151 (3) Å, b = 12.522 (3) Å, c = 25.493 (6) Å, β = 105.161 (13)° V = 2819.5 (13) Å3, Z = 4. A DFT quantum chemistry calculation method was employed to investigate the interaction mechanism of clonidine with tetraphenylborate. The stable configurations of the complexes of clonidine with tetraphenylborate with electrostatic interactions were obtained. Finally, the interaction strength and type of the complexes were studied through the reduced density gradient (RDG) function. This study provides new theoretical insight into the interaction mechanism and a guide for screening and designing the optimal clonidine and tetraphenylborate reacting to form the complex.
