Co-crystallization of 4,4'-methylenediphenylamine (MDA) and 5-sulfosalicylic acid (5-H2SSA) yields the title salt, C13H16N22+·2C7H5O6S-·H2O. The asymmetric unit is comprised of one dication, two anions and one water molecule. In the crystal structure, the components of the salt are linked by a combination of intermolecular O-H...O, N-H...O and weak C-H...O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional framework. In addition, two weak [pi]-[pi] interactions [with centroid-centroid distances of 3.8734 (15) and 3.7465 (15) Å] and one C-H...[pi] interaction further stabilize the crystal structure.
