Abstract

β-Alaninium tetrafluoroborate crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P2

1/n, Z = 4). The asymmetric unit contains one β-alaninium cation and one tetrafluoroborate anion, in which the fluorine atoms are disordered. All β-alaninium cations are connected with the symmetry related cations via an inversion center, thus forming dimeric centrosymmetric β-Ala

+···β-Ala

+ cations. The O···O distance (2.698(2) Å) in the dimeric cation is relatively long compared to known distances of previously reported salts with A

+···A

+ type dimeric cations. The infrared and Raman spectra are studied.
