Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-aminopyridinium thiocyanate–4-aminopyridine (1/1)

Abstract

In the crystals of the title compound, C5H7N2+·CNS−·C5H6N2, the components are linked by three N—H...N and two N—H...S hydrogen bonds, resulting in two interpenetrating three-dimensional networks. Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H...H (36.6%), C...H/H...C (20.4%), S...H/H...S (19.7%) and N...H/H...N (13.4%) interactions.
