  • Abstract
    The title salt, C10H21N2O+·C7H12NO4S−, comprises a 3-methacryl­amido-N,N,N-tri­methyl­propan-1-aminium cation and a 2-acryl­amido-2-methyl­propane-1-sulfonate anion. The salt crystallizes with two unique cation–anion pairs in the asymmetric unit of the ortho­rhom­bic unit cell. The crystal studied was an inversion twin with a 0.52 (4):0.48 (4) domain ratio. In the crystal, the cations and anions stack along the b-axis direction and are linked by an extensive series of N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. Hirshfeld surface analysis was carried out on both the asymmetric unit and the two individual salts. The contribution of inter­atomic contacts to the surfaces of the individual cations and anions are also compared.
