Crystal structure of tris[(pyridin-1-ium-2-yl)methyl]amine trichloride–methanol–water (1/1.829/0.342)

Abstract

In the title molecular salt, C18H21N4 3+·3Cl−.1.829CH4O.0.342H2O, the three pyridyl secondary amine N atoms are protonated with N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds present. The crystal structure contains a region of partially occupied and disordered methanol and water solvent. One of the three chloride anions is involved in hydrogen bonding to three methanol molecules, two of which are disordered.
