Abstract: In the title salt, C₅H₆N₅⁺·C₇H₈NO₂⁺·2ClO₄^-·3H₂O, the 3-carboxyanilinium and adeninium cations are monoprotonated at the amino group and at a pyrimidine N atom respectively. In the crystal, the components are involved in extensive three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding networks composed of O-HO, N-HO, O-HN, N-HN and C-HO interactions. Bifurcated hydrogen bonds are observed between perchlorate O atoms and adeninium cations.
