A. Cherouana, L. Bendjeddou and N. Benali-Cherif

Abstract: In the title compound, C₇H₈NO₂⁺·HSO₄^-, there is an intricate cation-cation, cation-anion and anion-anion three-dimensional hydrogen-bond network. Cations are linked two-dimensionally by C-HO hydrogen bonds, and anions are linked two-dimensionally by O-HO hydrogen bonds; however, interactions between cations and anions involve a three-dimensional network of N-HO and O-HO hydrogen bonds. The strongest hydrogen bond is observed between anions.
