In the title compound, C20H21N2+·C7H7O4S-·H2O, the cation is nearly planar and exists in the E configuration. The cations and anions form individual chains along the b axis and are interconnected by weak C-H
O interactions. The 4-methoxybenzensulfonate anions are linked to water molecules through O-H
O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. The crystal structure is further stabilized by a C-H
interaction involving the methoxyphenyl ring. The sulfonate anion is also involved in a weak intramolecular C-H
O interaction which generates an S(5) ring motif.
