Abstract

The title 1:1 stoichiometric salt, C7H10N+·C7H13O2 −, is formed by proton transfer between hepta­noic acid and benzyl­amine. This combination contrasts to the recently published 2:1 acid–amine adduct of cation, anion and neutral acid molecule from the same components [Wood & Clarke (2013 ▶). Acta Cryst. E69, o346–o347]. There are N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds of moderate strength in the structure [the most important graph-set motifs are R 2 4(8) and R 4 4(12)], as well as weak C—H⋯O inter­actions.

Highlights

  • Amine adduct of cation, anion and neutral acid molecule from the same components [Wood & Clarke (2013)

  • There exist in the literature a number of examples of complexes formed between alkyl amines and carboxylic acids

  • These have been identified by a number of experimental methods, such as NMR and IR spectroscopy
