Abstract
The title compound, C8H12N+.C8H7O3-, contains equal amounts of (R)- an d (S)-1-phenylethylammonium ions and of (R)- and (S)-mandelate ions (a lpha-hydroxybenzeneacetate). Hydrogen bonds connect cations with anion s of the same chirality, including ions related by the symmetry of the 2(1) axis. This hydrogen-bond pattern and the conformation of the ion s are identical to those found in (S)-1-phenylethylammonium (S)-mandel ate.
