Abstract

A complex hydrogen-bonding network involving the guanidinium cation and the dinitrile anion C(CN)2(CONH2)− has been studied using Laue neutron diffraction. The role of nitrile groups as hydrogen bond acceptors is highlighted in this donor-rich system combined with a survey of the CSD exploring R12(6) synthons containing nitrile groups.
