Bis[1-(isopropyl-ideneamino)guanidinium] bis-(3-nitro-benzoate) monohydrate.

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title salt hydrate, 2C(4)H(11)N(4) (+)·2C(7)H(4)NO(4) (-)·H(2)O, comprises two independent 1-(isopropyl-ideneamino)guanidinium cations, two independent 3-nitro-benzoate anions and a water mol-ecule of crystallization. There are minimal geometric differences between the two planar [maximum deviations 0.061?(2) and 0.088?(2)?Å] cations, and between the two almost planar anions [C-C-C-O and C-C-N-O torsion angles of 0.3?(3) and 11.1?(4) °, respectively in the first anion and -173.7?(2) and -0.1?(4), respectively in the second anion]. Extensive O-H?O and N-H?O hydrogen bonding between all components of the structure leads to the formation of a two-dimensional array with an undulating topology in the bc plane.
