Abstract

Mol-ecules of the title compound, Gly-β-Ala-Histamine dihydro-chloride, C(10)H(19)N(5)O(2) (2+)·2Cl(-), are linked by N-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds into two-dimensional polymeric sheets parallel to the (011) plane, forming a stacked structure along the a axis. The parallel layers are also inter-linked alternately by different N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework.
