2-Amino-3-methylpyridinium 3,4-dimethoxybenzoate

Abstract

In the title molecular salt, C6H9N2+·C9H9O4−, the cation is protonated at the pyridine N atom. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the components into [010] chains, which feature R22(8) loops. The chains are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
