2-Amino-6-methylpyridinium 2,2,2-trichloroacetate

In the asymmetric unit of the title molecular salt, C6H9N2+·C2Cl3O2−, there are two independent 2-amino-6-methylpyridinium cations and two independent trichloroacetate anions. The pyridine N atom of the 2-amino-6-methylpyridine molecule is protonated and the geometries of these cations reveal amine–...
