Quinolinium fumarate

N. Shan, E. Batchelor and W. Jones

Abstract: In the title complex, C₉H₈N⁺·C₄H₃O₄^-, fumarate anions are linked by O-HO hydrogen bonds, forming infinite supramolecular chains along the c axis. Quinolinium cations are attached to the anionic chains via N-HO and C-HO interactions. The crystal structure determination confirms the protonation of the quinoline N atom and deprotonation of one of the carboxylic acid groups of fumaric acid.
