Abstract

In the title hydrated salt, C₁₆H₁₂Cl₂N₃⁺·Cl^–·H₂O, there is a small twist in the cation as seen in the torsion angle linking the benzene ring to the rest of the mol­ecule [171.96 (17)°]. In the crystal, the quinolinium H atom forms a hydrogen bond to the lattice water mol­ecule, which also forms hydrogen bonds to two Cl^– anions. Each Cl^– ion also accepts a hydrogen bond from the hydrazine H atom. The three-dimensional architecture is also stabilized by – inter­actions between centrosymmetrically related quinoline residues [centroid-centroid distance = 3.5574 (11) Å].
