4-(4-Bromo­styr­yl)-1-methylpyridinium tosyl­ate

In the cation of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₃BrN⁺·C₇H₇O₃S⁻, the dihedral angle between the benzene and pyridine rings is 8.34 (11)°. The Br atom is disordered over two positions with site occupancies of 0.74 (2) and 0.26 (2). The mol­ecular structure is stabilized by a weak intra­molecular C—H...O inter­actions. The crystal structure exhibits weak C—H...O and π–π [centroid–centroid distance = 3.7466 (17) Å] inter­actions, forming a three dimensional network.

4-[2-(4-But­oxy­phen­yl)ethen­yl]-1-methyl­pyridinium tosylate

In the title mol­ecular salt, C₁₈H₂₂NO⁺·C₇H₇O₃S⁻, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings in the cation is 10.00 (9)°; its alkyl side chain adopts an extended conformation. In the crystal, weak C—H...O and π–π [centroid–centroid distance = 3.7658 (17) Å] inter­actions link the components, generating a three-dimensional network.
