The methoxy groups are stabilized by intramolecular N¡ªH...O hydrogen bonds. The structure also exhibits weak intermolecular N¡ªH...Cl hydrogen bonds between the cations and anions. ¦Ð¨C¦Ð interactions are present between the pyridinium and benzene rings [centroid¨Ccentroid distances = 3.640 (4), 3.728 (5) and 3.628 (5) ]. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536811055462
