Conclusion

The study reports the crystal structure of 4-bromoanilinium hydrogen phthalate, revealing its two-dimensional network formed by hydrogen bonds.

Supporting Evidence

  • The dihedral angles formed by the benzene ring and the mean planes of the –COOH and –COO− groups are 20.6 (3) and 83.2 (3)°.
  • Intermolecular hydrogen bonds connect the cations and anions, forming a two-dimensional network.

Takeaway

This study looks at a special chemical compound and how its parts fit together in a crystal. It helps scientists understand how these compounds can be used.

Methodology

The compound was synthesized by refluxing phthalic anhydride and 4-bromoaniline in ethanol, followed by natural evaporation to obtain single crystals for X-ray analysis.
