Abstract  

The synthesis, characterization and crystal structure of the title compound, (S)-2-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-6-yl)-N-((pyridin-4-yl)methyl) propanamide, is described. The salt is enantiomerically pure and crystallize in the orthorhombic P2₁2₁2₁ chiral space group with a = 7.9174(13) ?, b = 11.1583(18) ?, c = 11.2600(18) ?. Each molecule is linked to four neighboring molecules through the O–H···O and N–H···N hydrogen bonds into a supramolecular helical chain. The O–H···O and N–H···N hydrogen bonds lead to 24-membered open rings. Chains are further connected into layers via extensive interchain H···O and H···C short contacts.
