Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C6H9N2 +·C6H4NO2 −·0.63H2O, contains two crystallographically independent 2-amino-5-methyl­pyridinium cations, a pair of picolinate anions and two water mol­ecules, one with an occupancy of 0.25. Both the 2-amino-5-methyl­pyridine mol­ecules are protonated at the pyridine N atoms. In the crystal structure, the cations, anions and water mol­ecules are linked via N—H⋯O, N—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, as well as by C—H⋯O contacts, forming a chain along the b axis. In addition, weak π–π inter­actions are observed between pyridinium rings, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.5306 (13) Å.
