title: [4-(Methoxy-carbon-yl)benz-yl]triphenyl-phospho-nium bromide hemihydrate.
abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(27)H(24)O(2)P(+)·Br(-)·0.5H(2)O, there are inter-molecular O-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds between the H atoms of the water of crystallization and the bromide anions. The three phenyl rings of the triphenyl-phosphonium moiety are at angles of 59.73 (15), 79.15 (14) and 82.81 (17)° with the C/P/C planes.
