Abstract:
In the title compound, 2C(11)H(10)N(3)O(4)S(+)·SiF(6) (2-), the short C-N distance [1.386 (2) Å] is indicative of a slight conjugation of N with the π electrons of the pyridinium ring, and with those of the sulfonyl group. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyridinium rings is 77.48 (7)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-H⋯F and C-H⋯F hydrogen bonds. The Si atom of the anion lies on a special position.

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
