Abstract
In C 10 H 24 N 2 O 3 2+ .2C 6 H 2 N 3 O 7 - , the crown ether, 1,4,10-trioxa-7,13-diazacyclopentadecane (diaza-15-crown-5), exists as a dication by accepting protons from two 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (picric acid) molecules. The crown ether shows disorder due to the two uniangular conformations at C3 and C4. The anions are stacked between the dications and are connected to them by N-H...O hydrogen bonds to form columns of interleaved ions. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds.
