Abstract
The crystal structure of benzenamine-trifluoroacetic acid has been found to belong to the P2(1) space group of the monoclinic system, with Z = 8, a = 10.294(2) Angstrom, b = 9.126(2) Angstrom, c = 20.603(4) Angstrom, and beta = 98.77(3)degrees. In the crystal the amine is protonated and the resultin g benzenammonium and trifluoroacetate ions are interlinked by a network of N-H . . .O hydrogen bonds. The observed infrared spectrum is in accordance with such a structure.
