Hydrogen bis[l-lysinium(2+)] dichloride perchlorate
Abstract
In the title compound, 2C6H15N2O2+·H+·ClO4−·2Cl−, the two mono- and dicationic lysinium molecules are held together by strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Both the perchlorate and chloride anions link molecules 1 and 2 through the α-amino and ɛ-amino groups into infinite chains along the a axis. The aggregation of the hydrophilic groups is along the z = 0 plane and that of hydrophobic is along the z = plane. Molecule 1 is engaged in a zigzag (Z1) head-to-tail sequence.
