1-Ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium bromide monohydrate

A. Babai and A.-V. Mudring

Abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₇H₁₁N₂⁺·Br^-·H₂O, consists of one crystallographically independent 1-ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolidinium cation, one bromide anion and one water molecule, all of them located in general positions. In the crystal structure, the bromide anions and the water molecules are connected via O-HBr hydrogen bonding to form dimers which are located on centres of inversion. In addition, the cations are connected to the water molecules via weak C-HO hydrogen bonding.
