2-Amino-3-carb­oxy­pyrazin-1-ium perchlorate bis­(2-amino­pyrazin-1-ium-3-carboxyl­ate) monohydrate

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C ₅H ₆N ₃O ₂ ⁺·ClO ₄ ⁻·2C ₅H ₅N ₃O ₂·H ₂O, comprises two symmetry-independent zwitterions, one cation, one perchlorate anion and one water mol­ecule. In the crystal, the three different types of organic entities are linked by N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming undulating sheets parallel to (1-10). These sheets are in turn connected by O—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving perchlorate anions and water mol­ecules, forming a three-dimensional network. Intra­molecular N—H⋯O and weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are also present.
