ABSTRACT: The structures of the 1:1 anhydrous salts of nicotine (NIC) with 3,5-di-nitro-salicylic acid (DNSA) and 5-sulfosalicylic acid (5-SSA), namely (1R,2S)-1-methyl-2-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrrolidin-1-ium 2-carb-oxy-4,6-di-nitro-phenolate, C10H15N2 (+)·C7H3N2O7 (-), (I), and (1R,2S)-1-methyl-2-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrrolidin-1-ium 3-carb-oxy-4-hy-droxy-benzene-sulfonate, C10H15N2 (+)·C7H5O6S(-), (II), are reported. The asymmetric units of both (I) and (II) comprise two independent nicotinium cations (C and D) and either two DNSA or two 5-SSA anions (A and B), respectively. One of the DNSA anions shows a 25% rotational disorder in the benzene ring system. In the crystal of (I), inter-unit pyrrolidinium N-H?Npyridine hydrogen bonds generate zigzag NIC cation chains which extend along a, while the DNSA anions are not involved in any formal inter-species hydrogen bonding but instead form ?-?-associated stacks which are parallel to the NIC cation chains along a [ring-centroid separation = 3.857?(2)?Å]. Weak C-H?O inter-actions between chain substructures give an overall three-dimensional structure. In the crystal of (II), A and B anions form independent zigzag chains with C and D cations, respectively, through carb-oxy-lic acid O-H?Npyridine hydrogen bonds. These chains, which extend along b, are pseudocentrosymmetrically related and give ?-? inter-actions between the benzene rings of anions A and B and the pyridine rings of the NIC cations C and D, respectively [ring centroid separations = 3.6422?(19) and 3.7117?(19)?Å]. Also present are weak C-H?O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions between the chains, giving an overall three-dimensional structure.
