title: 3-(1-Ethyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxamido)propionic acid monohydrate.
abstract: The title compound, C(10)H(14)N(2)O(3)·H(2)O, was synthesized by alkyl-ation of methyl 3-(1H-pyrrole-2-carboxamido)-propion-ate with ethyl bromide, followed by saponification and acidification. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, forming layers parallel to the ac plane.
