(Methyldiphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium chloride
Abstract
The title compound, C13H15NP+·Cl−, was obtained by hydrolysis of the N-trimethysilyl derivative of methydiphenyliminophosphine. The dihedral angle between the phenyl rings in the cation is 61.5 (3)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds links the two components, forming a centrosymmetric 2 + 2 aggregate.
