Abstract
The title molecular complex, C5H12NO2S+·C8H7O3−·2C8H8O3, contains (R)-methioninium cations, (R)-mandelate anions and (R)-mandelic acid molecules. The (R)-methioninium cation assumes an anti conformation for all of its single bonds. Hydrophilic and hydrophobic layers alternate in the crystal structure. Hydrogen-bond interactions and van der Waals contacts occur in the hydrophilic and hydrophobic layers, respectively.
