title: 4-Chloro-N-(trimethylammonio)benzamide chloride monohydrate.
abstract: The structure of the cation in the ylide hydrochloride [Me(3)NNHC(O)C(6)H(4)-Cl-p]Cl.H(2)O, or C(10)H(14)ClN(2)O(+).Cl(-).H(2)O, is compared with that of the free ylide. Protonation lengthens the N-C(O) bond but shortens the C=O and N-N bonds by approximately 0.03 A and increases the dihedral angle between the phenyl and ylide planes.
