(Received 27 July 2009; accepted 1 September 2009; online 9 September 2009)

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

Comment top

The title compound, also known as isonicotinamidine hydrochloride, served as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmacologically active compounds. It had attracted a great deal of interest during recent years. A series of new piperidinyl- and 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridinylpyrimidine derivatives was synthesized by using isonicotinamidine as an important intermediate. Isonicotinamidine has a unique structure and exists in the form of hydrochloride or acetate (Chudinov et al., 2005; Kamei et al., 2005).

The title compound is an organic salt (Fig. 1). In the cation, dihedral angle between the pyridyl ring and the plane confined by N2, N3 and C6 is 42.1°. Each isonicotinamidine cation is connected to two other cations by N—H···N hydrogen bonds, and to two Cl- anions by N—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2), to form two dimensional layers including one-dimensional zigzag chains (Fig. 3). Weak C—H···Cl interactions [C···Cl = 3.556 (2) Å] link these layers to provide a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
