Abstract
The crystal structure of a protonated tripodal lipophilic amide, N-{2-[bis(2-octanoylaminoethyl)amino]ethyl}octanamide, identified an elegantly architected bilayer hydrogen bonded structure consisting of ladder-like cascades of the amide, with the rungs comprised of the lipophilic tails pointing inward and the poles made up of polar quaternary ammonium heads lining channels filled with nitrate ions.
