Z. Trávnícek and M. Matiková-Malarová

Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₂H₁₁BrN₅⁺·Cl^-, the cation exists as the N3-protonated N7 tautomer. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-HCl hydrogen bonds, which connect cations and anions into linear chains along the [010] direction. There are also some additional - stacking interactions and weak interatomic contacts of the types CCl and CBr.
