N-(2-Bromobenzyl)cinchoninium bromide

Abstract

The title compound {systematic name: 1-(2-bromobenzyl)-5-ethenyl-2-[hydroxy(quinolin-4-yl)methyl]-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-1-ium bromide}, C26H28BrN2O+·Br−, is a chiral quaternary ammonium salt of one of the Cinchona alkaloids. The planes of the quinoline and of the bromobenzyl substituent are inclined to one another by 9.11 (9)°. A weak intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond occurs. The crystal structure features strong O—H...Br hydrogen bonds and weak C—H...Br interactions.
