Triaminoguanidinium chloride was transformed into 1,2,3-tris(benzylamino)guanidinium chloride (3-Cl) in two steps. Anion exchange allowed the preparation of further salts 3-X. The crystal and molecular structures of 3-Cl, 3-I, 3-CF3COO and 3-CF3SO3 were determined. It was found that both the conformation of the cation and the nature of the anion determines the packing in the solid state. Interestingly, three different conformations of the cation were observed in the crystals.
