Description

Aniline hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt of aniline, formed by the protonation of aniline's amino group with hydrochloric acid. The structure consists of a phenyl ring attached to a tetrahedral ammonium center (C₆H₅NH₃⁺Cl⁻. It is a white to greenish crystalline solid, soluble in water, alcohol, and chloroform.

Aniline hydrochloride serves as a convenient, stable form of aniline for applications requiring high water solubility or solid-state handling, while maintaining the essential chemical reactivity of the aniline molecule for downstream chemical synthesis.
