Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₁H₁₇ClNO⁺·C₇H₅O₂^-, obtained by the reaction of chlorprenaline {or 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-[(1-methylethyl)amino]ethanol} and benzoic acid, the chlorprenaline is twisted moderately [C-C-C-C torsion angle = -76.00 (17)°] compared with related compounds. The molecules as usual form dimers. In the crystal structure, the two components are connected by classical O-HO and N-HO hydrogen bonds.
