Abstract:
The title compound, C(14)H(18)ClN(2)S(+)·Cl(-), crystallizes with two formula units in the asymmetric unit. The dihedral angles between the mean planes of the chloro-phenyl and thia-zole rings are 87.8 (2) and 88.0 (2)° in the two independent mol-ecules. In the crystal, the anions and cations are connected by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.

Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are halogen-substituted alkanes wherein one or more hydrogen atoms of an alkane is replaced by a halogen atom such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The carbon atom in an alkyl halide is bonded to the halogen atom, which is sp3-hybridized and exhibits a tetrahedral shape.
Unlike alkyl halides, compounds in which a halogen atom is bonded to an sp2 -hybridized carbon atom of a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) are called vinyl halides. Whereas aryl...
