Abstract
The title salt, methyl (1R,2R,3S,5S,8S)-3-benzoyloxy-8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylate tetrachloroaurate(III), (C17H22NO4)[AuCl4], has its protonated N atom intramolecularly hydrogen bonded to the O atom of the methoxycarbonyl group [N⋯O = 2.755 (6) A and N—H⋯O = 136°]. Two close intermolecular C—H⋯O contacts exist, as well as five C—H⋯Cl close contacts. The [AuCl4]− anion was found to be distorted square planar.
