Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₂₇H₂₀NO₂⁺·CF₃SO₃^-, the cations form inversion dimers through - interactions between the acridine ring systems [centroid-centroid distances = 3.668 (2)-3.994 (2) Å]. These dimers are further linked by C-HO and C-H interactions. The cation and the anion are connected by C-HO interactions. The mean plane of the acridine ring system makes dihedral angles of 10.6 (1) and 82.5 (1)°, respectively, with the adjacent phenyl ring and the carboxy group. The two phenyl rings of the biphenyl group are oriented at 42.9 (1)°.
