Abstract

4-Aminopyridine (4AP) and 2,5-dihydroxybenzonquinone (DHBQ) crystallize in a 2:1 ratio as a molecular salt with two molecules of water, i.e. 2C(5)H(7)N(2)(+).C6H2O42-. 2H(2)O in space group P2(1)/c. The 4AP molecules and the DHBQ molecules pack to form infinite one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chains mediated by the water molecules, which themselves act as tetrahedral centres and link the chains in three dimensions.
