Hexamethylenediammonium bis(saccharinate): supramolecular assembly via hydrogen bonds

Z.-L. Wang, L.-H. Wei, M.-X. Li and J.-Y. Niu

Abstract: The crystal structure of the title salt, C₆H₁₈N₂²⁺·2C₇H₄NO₃S^-, contains two crystallographically independent hexamethylenediammonium dications and two independent saccharinate anions; each of the dications occupies a special position on an inversion centre. The extensive hydrogen-bonding system, involving all six `active' H atoms, links the anions and cations into an infinite three-dimensional supramolecular assembly.
