Indole-3-thiouronium nitrate

Abstract

In the title compound, C9H10N3S+·NO3−, the indole ring system and the thiouronium group are nearly perpendicular, with a dihedral angle of 88.62 (6)°. Hydrogen bonding generates two-dimensional networks which are linked to each other via π stacking interactions of the indole groups [average inter-planar ring–ring distance of 3.449 (2) Å].
