In the cation, the piperazine ring adopts a chair configuration and contains two positively charged N atoms with quarternery character. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings in the benzhydryl group is 71.8 (1)<. The benzene ring flanked opposite the piperazine ring is twisted by 75.9 (9) and 8.8 (3)< from these two benzene rings. In the crystal, the [N!H...Owater!H...O(...;S)]2 hydrogen-bonded asymmetric unit is connected by further O!H...O hydrogen bonds linking the components into chains along [100]. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536813003991
