Crystal structure, thermal analysis and IR spectrometric investigation of L-tyrosine hydrazide sulfate

Chemical preparation, X-ray single crystal, thermal analysis and IR spectrometric investigation of (C₉H₁₅N₃O₂)SO₄ denoted LTHS are described. The LTHS crystallizes in the monoclinic system with P2₁ space group. Its unit cell dimensions are a=5.5386(1) Å, b=8.0467(4) Å, c=14.0780(6) Å, β=93.339(3)° with V=626.36(4) Å³ and Z=2. The structure has been solved using direct method and refined to a reliability R factor of 0.0212. The LTHS structure is built up from organic chains parallel to the b axis, linked via N---H…O hydrogen bonds and interconnected by inorganic groups so as to build a three-dimensional arrangement.
