✦ Synopsis
In the title compound (systematic name: 2,3-dimethoxy-10oxostrychnidinium 2-carboxy-6-nitrophthalate dihydrate), C 23 H 27 N 2 O 4 + ÁC 8 H 4 NO 6 À Á2H 2 O, the carboxylic acid and carboxylate groups of the hydrogenphthalate anions form head-to-tail catemeric chains of strong intermolecular O-HÁ Á ÁO hydrogen bonds [OÁ Á ÁO distance = 2.563 (5) A ˚] along the 2 1 screw axes parallel to the a axis. The chains further associate with the water molecules, forming sheet structures parallel to (010). The protonated N atom at the 19-position of the brucine molecule forms a peripheral intermolecular hydrogen bond with the carboxylate group of the anion.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C 9 H 8 NO + ÁC 6 H 3 -N 2 O 4 À Á2H 2 O, contains two independent cations, two anions and four water molecules of solvation. A three-dimensional framework structure is formed through extensive hydrogenbonding involving most donor and acceptor species. Sign
