2-Aminocyclohexan-1-aminium thiocyanate

Abstract

The title compound, C6H15N2 +·NCS-, was obtained unexpectedly from the reaction mixture of benzoyl chloride, ammonium thiocyanate and cyclohexane-1,2-diamine. The cyclohexane ring adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, N - H⋯S and N - H⋯N interactions involving the thiocyanate anion and both the amine and the aminium N atoms link the molecules, forming two-dimensional networks parallel to (001).
