Abstract Epiisopiloturine hydrochloride (Epi-HCl) salt was synthetized from epiisopiloturine, an in vivo anthelmintic compound against Schistosoma mansoni worms. Despite there being no acute toxicity in mammalian cells, the compound's water insolubility makes its administration difficult. In this communication, we report the characterization of Epi-HCl its features by spectroscopy, thermal analysis, and PXRD. The single crystals suitable to X-ray diffraction were grown by slow evaporation technique. To better understand the nature of Epi-HCl' solid state, SS-NMR was also used. The salt's intramolecular structure was maintained via cation-pi intramolecular interactions, which in conjunction with hydrogen bonding, gives rise to an extended supramolecular assembly. The interatomic distances within the cations and environment around the chloride anion vary as function of temperature, suggesting a packing relaxation.
