Abstract

In the title compound, C6H9N2 +·C7H6NO2 −, the H atom of the N—H group and an H atom of the 2-amino group from the cation are involved in inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with the O atoms of the carboxyl­ate group of the anion, forming an R 2 2(8) ring motif. These ring motifs are, in turn, connected by further N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network. The crystal structure is further stabilized by π⋯π stacking inter­actions involving the benzene and pyridinium rings with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.7594 (8) Å.
