Abstract:
The title compound, C(6)H(14)N(2) (2+)·2C(7)H(4)ClO(2) (-), contains trimeric units linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The carboxyl-ate groups of the 2-chloro-benzoate anions form dihedral angles of 66.1 (1) and 76.1 (1)° with the respective chloro-benzene rings to which they are bound. The hydrogen-bonded trimers are arranged in layers in the (200) planes and the chloro-benzoate anions form edge-to-face inter-actions between layers, with dihedral angles of 61.9 (1) and 49.8 (1)° and centroid-centroid distances of 4.85 (1) and 4.65 (1) Å, respectively, for two crystallographically distinct inter-actions.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
