Abstract: In the title compound, Na⁺·C₆H₄IO₃S^-·H₂O, the Na atom is hexacoordinated by O atoms, forming a two-dimensional sheet-like structure in the bc plane, with the iodobenzene rings protruding above and below. NaO contact distances are in the range 2.419 (2)-2.7218 (18) Å and ONaO angles are in the range 73.70 (5)-158.64 (7)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by O-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds and C-H interactions. The I atom is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.78 (2) and 0.22 (2).
