(R,R)-Disynephrine ether bis-(hydrogen sulfate).

ABSTRACT: THE ASYMMETRIC UNIT OF THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: (R,R)-2,4-bis-(4-hydroxy-phen-yl)-N,N'-dimethyl-3-oxapentane-1,5-diammonium bis-(hydrogen sulfate)], C(18)H(26)N(2)O(3) (2+)·2HSO(4) (-), contains one half-cation and one hydrogen sulfate anion. The cation has crystallographically imposed twofold symmetry with the rotation axis passing through the central ether O atom. Hydrogen bonds between the hydr-oxy group and amine H atoms of the cation to two hydrogen sulfate anions link the three ions in a ring motif. A three-dimensional network is accomplished by additional O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the anions and by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the cations. Disorder with equally occupied sites affects the H-atom position in the anion.
