Pyridine-4-carboximidamidate chloride

In the title salt, C(6)H(8)N(3) (+)·Cl(−), each pyridine­carbox­imid­amidate cation is linked to two symmetry-related cations through N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, and to two chloride ions by N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. The N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds involve the pyridine N atom and one NH(2) group. In the crystal, N—H⋯N and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds extend the structure into two-dimensional layers. Weak C—H⋯Cl inter­actions further connect these layers into a three-dimensional network.
