11. sym = 1.278(3) Å, N⋯N= 2.556(4) Å, i e., a distance 0.030(5) Å longer than the corresponding N⋯N distance of 2.526(3) Å obtained by X-ray diffraction at room temperature. This expansion of the N⋯N distance on cooling, which is outside the 3σ error limits of the two N⋯N distances, appears to be real but external to the H-bond as such: it is more likely due to conformational changes with temperature in the compact ring system of the cation embedded in the crystal than to differences arising from the diffraction method, as it involves nitrogen atoms.
