Pyridine-4-carboximidamidate chloride

P. Fan, L. Wang and H. Zhang

Abstract: In the title salt, C₆H₈N₃⁺·Cl^-, each pyridinecarboximidamidate cation is linked to two symmetry-related cations through N-HN hydrogen bonds, and to two chloride ions by N-HCl hydrogen bonds. The N-HN hydrogen bonds involve the pyridine N atom and one NH₂ group. In the crystal, N-HN and N-HCl hydrogen bonds extend the structure into two-dimensional layers. Weak C-HCl interactions further connect these layers into a three-dimensional network.
