Abstract
In the title solvated molecular salt, C18H22BrN2O3+·Cl- ·CH3CN, the imidazole ring is in envelope conformation and the pyridine and phenyl rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 72.52 (5)°. In the crystal, O—H· · ·Cl and N—H· · ·Cl hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions into centrosymmetric tetramers enclosing R24(12) loops. Short Br· · ·Cl [3.2313 (4) Å] and O· · ·Cl [3.0490 (10) Å] contacts are observed. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H· · ·H (52.4%), H· · ·C/C· · ·H (12.1%), H· · ·Br/Br· · ·H (11.0%) and H· · ·Cl/Cl· · ·H (10.2%) interactions.
