Pyrrolidinium chloride

Abstract

The title compound, C4H10N+·Cl−, was obtained as a decomposition product from 2,6-bis(pyrrolidinyl)pyridine. The anion lies on the same cristallographic mirror plane as the N atom of the cation, the complete cation being generated by mirror symmetry. The anions and cations are connected by N+—H...Cl− hydrogen bonds into chains along [100]. The pyrrolidinium cation is puckered in an envelope conformation EN1.
