Figure 3
The crystal packing of (I), showing the hydrogen-bonded helical chains formed in this structure, with an alternating arrangement of the pyridinium and trifluoromethanesulfonate ions. Chains (i) and (iii) extend along the 21a screw, and chains (ii) and (iv) along the 21b screw axis. The N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) are indicated by dashed lines. All H atoms have been omitted. |
