Guanidinium phenylarsonate-guanidine-water (1/1/2)

In the structure of CH6N3+ C6H6AsO3- . CH5N3 . 2H2O, the phenylarsonate anion gives two R2/2(8) cyclic hydrogen-bonding interactions, one with a guanidinium cation, the other with a guanidine molecule. The anions are also bridged by the water molecules, one of which completes a cyclic R3/5(9) hydrogen-bonding association with the guanidinum cation, conjoint with one of the three R^2^~2~(8) associations about that ion, as well as forming an R1/2(6) cyclic association with the guanidine molecule. The result is a three-dimensional framework structure.
