The crystal structure of pazopanib hydrochloride Form 1 has been refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional theory techniques. Pazopanib hydrochloride crystallizes in space group P-1 (#2) with a = 8.45008(6), b = 8.71310(12), c = 16.05489(35) Å, α = 79.5996(9), β = 86.4784(5), γ = 87.3764(3)°, V = 1159.724(9) Å3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure is essentially identical to that of CSD Refcode CEVYEK. There are four strong N–H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds to the chloride anion. Several additional weaker N–H⋯Cl and C–H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are also present. A variety of C–H⋯O, C–H⋯N, and N–H⋯S hydrogen bonds also contribute to the lattice energy. The powder pattern has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™.
