Abstract: In the title compound, 2C₅H₁₁NO₂·C₄H₆O₄, the DL-valine molecule exists in the zwitterionic form and the neutral succinic acid molecule lies across an inversion center. There are no direct hydrogen-bonding interactions between succinic acid molecules. Valine and succinic acid molecules form alternating columns parallel to the c axis and are interlinked through characteristic hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network.
