4-Hy­droxy-1,2,6-tri­methyl­pyridinium bromide monohydrate

The title salt, C(8)H(12)NO(+)·Br(−)·H(2)O, is isomorphous with the chloride analogue [Seethalakshmi et al. (2013). Acta Cryst. E69, o835–o836]. In the solid state, the cations, anions and water mol­ecules are inter­linked by a network of O—H⋯O, O—H⋯Br and C—H⋯Br inter­actions. The water mol­ecule makes two O—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, generating [010] zigzag chains of alternating water mol­ecules and bromide anions. The cation is involved in two inter­molecular C—H⋯Cl inter­actions in the chloride salt, whereas three inter­molecular C—H⋯Br inter­actions are observed in the title bromide salt. This additional inter­molecular C—H⋯Br inter­action links the adjacent water and bromide zigzag chains via cationic mol­ecules. In addition, weak π–π stacking inter­actions are observed between pyridinium rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5664 (13) Å].
