title: 2-Carboxy-anilinium chloride monohydrate.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(7)H(8)NO(2) (+)·Cl(-)·H(2)O, an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond results in the formation of a non-planar six-membered ring adopting a flattened boat conformation. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules. There is a C=O⋯π contact between the carbonyl unit and the centroid of the benzene ring. There is a C=O⋯π contact [C⋯Cg = 3.5802 (18), C-O⋯Cg = 89 (1)°] between the carbonyl unit and the centroid of the benzene ring.
