Introduction
The synthesis of new hybrid materials based sulfate, phosphate and arsenate may contain original physical properties, is one of several research studies in chemistry laboratories in the world, due to its importance in both biological processes; in various industrial applications and technological [1] [2].The cohesion forces in these hybrid compounds are dominated by electrostatic interactions, Vander Waals contacts, and hydrogen bonds (O-H…O and N-H…O).These hydrogen bonds play an important role in the mechanism of association of molecules that either biological or not.The strong characteristics and orientation of these links are extremely important in obtaining new materials such as proton conductors and frequency doublers.Thus, organic sulfates resulting from the interaction between sulfuric acid and organic molecules in which one of atom, at least, carries a lone pair, owe their stability to hydrogen bonds [3]- [5].This work reports the chemical preparation, crystal structure and physico-chemical study of a new organic sulfate (C 7 H 9 N 2 O) 3 HSO 4 SO 4 .

Chemical Preparation
Crystals of the title compound, (C 7 H 9 N 2 O) 3 HSO 4 SO 4 , were prepared by slow evaporation at room temperature of an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid (98wt% from Fluka) and the organic molecule 2-Aminobenzamide (Sigma-Aldrich ) in a 2:3 molar ratio.The corresponding acid-base chemical reaction can be written as follows: After agitation, the resulting solution was left to slowly evaporate at room temperature until single crystals suitable for X-ray structure analysis formulates and remain stable under normal conditions of temperature and humidity.

Investigation
The title compound has been studied by various physico-chemical methods: X-ray diffraction, Infrared spectroscopy and Thermal analysis.

X-Ray Structure Determination
X-ray intensity data of the title compound were collected on a Nonius Kappa-CCD diffractometer using monochromated Mo Kα radiation.For the crystal, 90 frames were recorded, each being of 2˚ in ϕ and 60 s duration.Each frame is doubled to eliminate the uncertain electronic impulses.The first 10 frames were used for indexing reflections using the DENZO package and refined to obtain final cell parameters [6].Preliminary photographs indicated monoclinic symmetry and systematically absent reflections showed the space group to be P2 1 /c.Crystal data and experimental parameters used for the intensity data collection are summarized in Table 1.The structure was solved with a direct method, from the SHELXS-97 programs, which allows the location of the SO 4 groups.The remaining non-hydrogen atoms were found by the successive difference Fourier maps using the SHELXL-97 programs [7].The formula structure was drawn by Diamond [8].In the final least-squares refinement of atomic parameters with isotropic thermal factors of H atoms, R has decreased to 4.6% (Rw = 11.41%) for the title compound.

Thermal Analysis
Setaram TG-DTA92 star system Mettler Toledo thermoanalysers were used to perform thermal treatment on samples of (C 7 H 9 N 2 O) 3 HSO 4 SO 4 .The TG-DTA experiments were carried out with 19.8 mg sample in an open alumina crucible.In this technique, samples were heated in an air atmosphere with heating rates of 5˚C•min −1 .

Infrared Spectroscopy
IR spectrum of the compound was recorded at room temperature with a Biored FTS 6000 FTIR spectrometer over the wave number range of 4000 -400 cm −1 with a resolution of about 4 cm −1 .Thin transparent pellet was made by compacting an intimate mixture obtained by shaking 2 mg of the samples in 100 mg of KBr.

Structure Description
The atomic arrangement of the structure of the tris (2-amoniumbenzamide) sulfate (C 7 H 9 N 2 O) 3 HSO 4 SO 4 was described by a three-dimensional network of structural units formed by a cluster (HS 2 O 8 ) 3− sulfate and three organic cations (C 7 H 9 N 2 O) + .Figure 1 shows an ORTEP [9] stereoscopic projection of the crystal packing.The mineral skeleton of this compound is formed by basic

Thermal Behavior
The thermal study was conducted using a thermoanalyzer type Setaram TG-ATD92.The thermogram (TG-DTA) of Figure 6 is registered under an air atmosphere using a mass of 19.8 mg sample placed in a platinum crucible and heated from ambient to 400˚C.
The TG curve shows no mass loss in the area, room temperature 200˚C.However it shows a significant loss from 200˚C up.The DTA curve shows two endothermic peaks less intense at 98˚C and 110˚C which is attributed to two transitions likely stage since at this temperature was noticed no mass loss.Note that the observed thermal phenomena in differential thermal analysis are many and varied.The majority of these peaks are endothermic such as melting, evaporation, sublimation, dehydration.The remaining peaks are exothermic such as adsorption, crystallization and decomposition; however, the last two phenomena can also be endothermic.The DTA curve shows a succession of exothermic and endothermic peaks between 200˚C and 400˚C can be explained by the decomposition of the molecule.The endothermic peak observed at 199˚C is attributed to the melting of the anhydrous compound.

IR Absorption Spectroscopy
The literature study, conducted over several sulfates [16] [17] shows that specific frequencies of vibration of the free ion SO 4 , in its ideal Td symmetry are ν 1 = 981 cm −1 , ν 2 = 451 cm −1 , ν 3 = 1104 cm −1 and ν 4 = 614 cm −1 [18].Frequently encountered in structures, SO 4 tetrahedron are often distorted have low symmetry sites.The lifting of degeneracy and activity of inactive modes, in the ideal symmetry, multiply the number of bands in the infrared spectrum.The IR spectrum of compound (C 7 H 9 N 2 O) 3 HSO 4 SO 4 is reported in Figure 7.
An attempt to assign frequencies to different stretching vibrations and deformation of the organic cation is performed based on previous work [19] [20].Bands observed in the region 2562 -3375 cm −1 are assigned to symmetric and asymmetric vibrations of valence ν(NH 3 ), ν(NH 2 ), ν(CH) and ν(OH).The bands between 1538 -1681 cm −1 are attributed to deformation vibrations of bonds (NH 3 ) and (NH 2 ) as well as vibrations of valences ν(C=C) and ν(CN).Vibration symmetrical and asymmetrical deformation δ s (CH) and δ as (CH), occur in the area from 1276 to 1499 cm −1 .The deformation vibrations rocking type: ρ(NH 3 ), ρ(NH 2 ) and ρ(CH) appear in the 721 -965 cm −1 region.The twists τ(NH 3 ) and τ(NH 2 ) appear in 514 -560 cm −1 bands.Finally, the bands 1926 -2369 cm −1 domains are assigned to overtones and combination bands.The frequency bands in the region 410 -484 cm −1 are attributed to the symmetric deformation vibration of δ s (SO 4 ).The asymmetric deformation symmetry δ as (SO 4 ) was observed in the area 602 -671 cm −1 .While that connected to the symmetry of valence SO 4 group is presented by the band 992 cm −1 .Bands observed in the 992 -1186 cm −1 , on asymmetrical valence vibration ν s (SO 4 )δ as (SO 4 ) region.
