Bis[(3-chloro-benz-yl)ammonium] 2-phenyl-propane-dioate dihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, 2C(7)H(9)ClN(+)·C(9)H(6)O(4) (2-)·2H(2)O, there are two crystallographically independent cations, one dianion and two water mol-ecules. The dihedral angle between the two carboxyl-ate groups of the dianion is 78.1 (2)°. In the crystal, the components are held together by N-H⋯O, O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a layer parallel to the bc plane, with the hydro-philic and hydro-phobic groups located in the inner and outer regions of the layers, respectively.
