title: 4-[Bis(4-fluoro-phen-yl)meth-yl]piperazin-1-ium bis-(trichloro-acetate) 0.4-hydrate.
abstract: The title compound, C(17)H(20)F(2)N(2) (2+)·2C(2)Cl(3)O(2) (-)·0.4H(2)O, has twofold protonated N atoms. The trichloro-acetate anions each show one disordered Cl atom with site occupation factors of 0.945 (7):0.055 (7) 0.945 (8):0.055 (8). In the crystal, N-H⋯O, O(water)-H⋯O and O(water)-H⋯F inter-actions connect the components into a three-dimensional network.
