Abstract
In the title solvated salt, C9H14N+·Cl−·C19H24O2·0.5C7H7, two molecules of 4,4′-(propane-2,2-diyl)bis(2,6-dimethylphenol) are linked via O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds to two chloride ions, each of which is also engaged in N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding to a 4-tert-butylpyridinium cation, giving a cyclic hydrogen-bonded entity centred at 1/2, 1/2, 1/2. The toluene solvent molecule resides in the lattice and resides on an inversion centre; the disorder of the methyl group requires it to have a site-occupancy factor of 0.5. No crystal packing channels are observed.

H atoms treated by a mixture of independent and constrained refinement
Synthesis and crystallization The title compound crystallized from toluene as very thin colourless plates from the reaction between TiCl4 and 4,4′-(propane-2,2-diyl)bis(2,6-dimethylphenol) in the presence of 4-tert-butylpyridine
H1 and H2 were located from a difference map and their positions were allowed to ride on their oxygen atoms
