Abstract:
The title compound, C(36)H(30)NP(2)(+).HSO(4)(-).CHCl(3), consists of discrete ions and well separated chloroform solvate molecules. The central feature of the structure is O-H...O hydrogen bonding between two hydrogensulfate ions related by a crystallographic inversion centre. The chloroform solvate molecule takes part in a well defined C-H...O hydrogen bond.
