3-Carboxy-1-sulfopyridin-1-ium chloride ([CPySO3H]+Cl-) as a novel ionic organocatalyst for thecondensation of aldehydes and 2-methylindole to synthesize bis(2-methyl-1H-indole) derivatives inacetonitrile at room temperature has been developed. Some tetrakis (2-methyl-1H-indole)derivatives have also been synthesized by the reaction of 2,2'-(butane-1,4-diylbis(oxy))dibenzaldehyde and 2-methylind...

In 2-amino-6-methylpyridin-1-ium 2-carboxy-3,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzoate, C(6)H(9)N(2)(+)·C(8)HCl(4)O(4)(-), there are two perpendicular chains of hydrogen-bonded ions, one arising from the interaction between 2-carboxy-3,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzoate ions and the other from the interaction between the 2-amino-6-methylpyridin-1-ium and 2-carboxy-3,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzoate ions. These chains combine ...
