Abstract: In the crystal of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₁N₂O₂⁺·C₇H₇O₃S^-, the cation and anion interact by way of an aromatic - interaction [centroid-centroid separation = 3.5783 (2) Å] and a T-stacking (C-H) interaction between cations. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings in the cation is 61.73 (8)°. The ionic units are aligned in a zigzag fashion in the b-axis direction.
