N. Srinivasan, B. Sridhar and R. K. Rajaram

Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, 2C₉H₁₂NO₂⁺·SO₄^2-·H₂O, consists of two protonated phenylalaninium cations linked together by hydrogen bonding with the water molecule and the sulfate anion. The aggregation of the hydrophobic zone is along (10) and of the hydrophilic zone is along (20). The phenylalaninium molecules show sterically least favourable g+ or g- conformations.
