2-(Benzene-sulfonamido)acetic acid.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(8)H(9)NO(4)S, is of inter-est as a precursor to biologically active sulfur-containing heterocyclic cmpounds. The crystal structure displays the classical O-H⋯O inter-molecular hydrogen bonding typical for carboxylic acids forming dimers. Symmetry-related dimers are, in turn, linked through head-to-tail pairs of inter-molecular N-H⋯O inter-actions, giving rise to a zigzag chain along the c axis.
