m-Xylylenediaminium dinitrate.
The asymmetric unit of the title salt, C8H14N2 (2+)·2NO3 (-), contains two independent dications and four independent nitrate anions. The crystal structure consists of discrete nitrate ions, three of which stack in layers parallel to (001) at z = 0 and 0.5. These layers are connected via m-xylylenediaminium dications. The fourth anion is sandwiched by the two independent organic cations in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, the ions are connected by a large number of bifurcated and non-bifurcated N-H⋯O(O) hydrogen bonds, forming sheets parallel to (100). These sheets are connected by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
