Norfloxacinium nitrate.

ABSTRACT: In the title salt [systematic name: 4-(3-carb-oxy-1-ethyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-di-hydro-quin-olin-7-yl)piperazin-1-ium nitrate], C₁₆H₁₉FN₃O₃ ⁺·NO₃ ^-, proton transfer from nitric acid to the N atom of the piperazine ring of norfloxacin has occurred to form a mol-ecular salt. In the extended structure, N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link alternating cations and anions into [100] chains, which are reinforced by aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions between the quinoline moieties of the norfloxacinium cations.
