The structure of the cation in the ylide hydrochloride [Me3NNHC(O)C6H4-Cl-p]Cl.H2O, or C10H14ClN2O+.Cl-.H2O, is compared with that of the free ylide. Protonation lengthens the N-C(O) bond but shortens the C=O and N-N bonds by similar to0.03 Angstrom and increases the dihedral angle between the phenyl and ylide planes.
