In 2,4-diamino-5-( p-chlorophenyl)-6-ethylpyrimidinium hydrogen adipate, C12H14ClN4+·C6H9O4−, the protonated pyrimethamine cation interacts with the carboxylate group of the adipate ion through N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a cyclic hydrogen-bonded R22(8) motif. The carboxyl and carboxylate groups of the adipate ions are linked through O—H...O hydrogen bonds in a head-to-tail fashion, forming a chain. Anions and cations are further connected by an extensive network of N—H...O hydrogen bonds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
