The three H atoms of the ¨CNH3+ group are engaged in strong and highly directional intermolecular N¡ªH...Cl hydrogen bonds, which result in a tape-like arrangement along [010] of the respective ion pairs. In addition, weak intermolecular C¡ªH...Cl and C¡ªH...O interactions are present. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536812003297
