Abstract

The crystal structures of the 1:1 proton-transfer compounds of 4,5-dichloro-phthalic acid with the three isomeric mono-amino-benzoic acids, namely the hydrate 2-carboxy-anilinium 2-car-b-oxy-4,5-dichloro-benzoate dihydrate, C7H8NO2 +· C8H3Cl2O4 -·2H2O, (I), and the anhydrous salts 3-carboxy-anilinium 2-carb-oxy-4,5-dichloro-benzoate, C7H 8NO2 +·C8H3Cl2O4 -, (II), and 4-carboxy-anilinium 2-carb-oxy-4,5-dichloro-benzoate, C7H 8NO2 +·C8H3Cl2O4 -, (III), have been determined at 130 K. Compound (I) has a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded sheet structure, while (II) and (III) are three-dimensional. All three compounds feature sheet substructures formed through anilinium N + - H⋯Ocarbox-yl and anion ..
