Ammonium 2-(2,4-dichloro­phen­oxy)acetate hemihydrate

Abstract

The title compound, NH4 +·C8H7Cl2O6 −·0.5H2O, was prepared by the reaction of 2-(2,4-dichloro­phen­oxy)­acetic acid and ammonia in water at 367 K. The mol­ecular structure and packing are stabilized by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O inter­molecular hydrogen-bond inter­actions
