Abstract: In the title molecular salt, C₅H₁₃N₂O₂S⁺·Cl^-, the complete cation is generated by crystallographic mirror symmetry, with both N atoms, the S atom and one C atom lying on the reflecting plane. The chloride ion also lies on the mirror plane. The piperazinium ring adopts a chair conformation and the N-S bond adopts an equatorial orientation. In the crystal structure, the component ions are linked into a three-dimensional framework by intermolecular N-HCl and C-HCl hydrogen bonds.
