There are two cations and two anions in the 6H10N3+·C2H2ClO2−. In the crystal, the components are linked by intermolecular N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds to form a two-dimensional network. Additional stabilization is provided by weak intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions.

A mixture of guanidine hydrochloride (0.1 mol), acetyl acetone (0.2 mol), sodium carbonate (0.03 mol) and 2-chloroacetic acid (0.1 mol) was stirred with water (30 ml) for 3 h to afford the title compound (yield 67%). Colourless blocks of (I) were obtained by recrystallization of the title compound from water at room temperature.
H atoms bonded to C atoms were fixed geometrically and and included in a riding-model approximation with C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å and Uiso(H)=1.2–1.5Ueq(C).
As useful precursors to potentially bioactive pyrimidine derivatives, methylpyrimidine has attracted considerable attention for many years (Xue et al., 1993). In recent years, new complexes of pyrimidine have been synthesized (Hemamalini et al., 2005). The title compound(I), was synthesized and we report herein its

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

As useful precursors to potentially bioactive pyrimidine derivatives, methylpyrimidine has attracted considerable attention for many years (Xue et al., 1993). In recent years, new complexes of pyrimidine have been synthesized (Hemamalini et al., 2005). The title compound(I), was synthesized and we report herein its crystal structure (Fig. 1).
There are two 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine cations and two chloracetate anions in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal structure, cations and anions are linked by intermolecular N—H···O and N—H···N hydrogen bonds to form a two-dimensional network. Additional stabilization is provided by weak intermolecular C—H···O interactions.
