(R)-(3-Carb­oxy-2-hy­droxy­prop­yl)tri­methyl­aza­nium chloride

In the title salt (common name l-carnitine hydro­chloride), C(7)H(16)NO(3) (+)·Cl(−), the organic cation features a carb­oxy­lic part (–CO(2)H) having unambigous single- and double-bonds [1.336 (2), 1.211 (2) Å]. There is a large N—C—C bond angle [115.9 (1)°] for the C atom connected to the bulky tr...

Descripción
Sumario:In the title salt (common name l-carnitine hydro­chloride), C(7)H(16)NO(3) (+)·Cl(−), the organic cation features a carb­oxy­lic part (–CO(2)H) having unambigous single- and double-bonds [1.336 (2), 1.211 (2) Å]. There is a large N—C—C bond angle [115.9 (1)°] for the C atom connected to the bulky trimethyl­amino substituent. In the crystal, the acid H atom forms a hydrogen bond to the chloride anion, whereas the hydroxyl H atom forms a longer hydrogen bond to the anion, generating a helical chain running along [001].
