In the title molecular salt, C5H9N2+·C7H3N2O7−, the roughly planar anion (r.m.s. deviation = 0.120 Å) has been deprotonated at the phenol group. An intramolecular O—HO hydrogen bond in the anion generates an S(6) ring. In the crystal, the components are linked by cation-to-anion N—HO and N—H(O,O) hydrogen bonds, generating [010] double chains. Weak C—HO interactions consolidate the packing.
