Redetermination of cytosinium hydrogen maleate–cytosine (1/1) from the original data

The title salt, C(4)H(6)N(3)O(+)·C(4)H(3)O(4) (−)·C(4)H(5)N(3)O, has been redetermined from the data published by Benali-Cherif, Falek & Direm [Acta Cryst. (2009), E65, o3058–o3059]. The improvement of the present redetermination consists in the discovery of the splitting of one of the H atoms into two disordered positions, the occupancies of which are equal to 0.55 (2) and 0.45 (2). These H atoms are involved in an N⋯N hydrogen bond and are shifted towards its centre. The disorder of these H atoms is in agreement with a similar environment of the two independent, but chemically equivalent, cytosinium/cytosine mol­ecules.
