3-Acetyl-6-chloro-2-methyl-4-phenylquinolinium perchlorate

Abstract

In the title molecular salt, C18H15ClNO +·ClO4-, the quinolin-ium ring system is approximately planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.027 (1) Å. The dihedral angle formed between the mean planes of the quinolinium ring system and the benzene ring is 78.46 (3)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N - H⋯O and C - H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions into a three-dimensional network. The crystal structure is further consolidated by C - H⋯π interactions. © 2010.
