1-Tetradecylpyridinium bromide monohydrate
Abstract
In the title compound, C19H34N+·Br−·H2O, the dihedral angle between the trans-planar alkyl side chain and the pyridinium ring is 52.73 (7)°. In the crystal structure, O—H...Br, C—H...Br and C—H...O hydrogen bonds form a network, while the hydrophobic alkyl chains interdigitate, forming bilayers.
