Gemcitabine hydro­chloride (2′-deoxy-2′,2′-di­fluoro­cytidine hydro­chloride), C9H12N3F2O4+·Cl, is a β-nucleoside that is of pharmaceutical interest as an antitumor agent. The N atom of the cytidine ring is protonated due to salt formation. The sugar residue adopts a C3′-endo and C4′-exo conformation. In the asymmetric unit, gemcitabine cations and chloride ions are linked by N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure, screw-related gemcitabine cations are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form molecular columns along the c axis and adjacent columns are interlinked by N—H...Cl and O—H...Cl hydrogen bonds.

Experimental. The scan width was (0.94 + 0.14tanθ)° with an ω scan speed of 16° per minute (up to 5 scans to achieve I/σ(I) > 15). Stationary background counts were recorded at each end of the scan, and the scan time:background time ratio was 2:1.

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All e.s.d.'s are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

Refinement. Refinement using all reflections. The weighted R-factor (wR), goodness of fit (S) and R-factor (gt) are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F. The threshold expression of F2 > 2.0 σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factor (gt).
