Abstract: In the title salt, C₁₅H₁₇N₂⁺·ClO₄^-, the isoindoline N atom is protonated and an intramolecular N-HN hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, N-HO and numerous weak C-HO interactions occur between the cation and anion. The O atoms of the perchlorate anion are disordered over four sets of sites with occupancies of 0.438 (4), 0.270 (9), 0.155 (8) and 0.138 (5).
