Abstract:
A fundamental understanding of the role of oxyanion geometry on molecular packing and non-covalent interactions in salt crystal structures is central to the fields of both molecular recognition and crystal engineering. The crystal structure of the title compound was determined as part of a project focusing on the role of anions when combined with alkylammonium or arylammonium cations. The structures of the related compounds p-toluidinium nitrate (Benali-Cherif et al., 2009) and o-toluidinium nitrate (Benali-Cherif et al., 2007) have been reported in the literature.
