title: Acetonyltriphenyl-phospho-nium nitrate.
abstract: Crystals of the title salt, C(21)H(20)OP(+)·NO(3) (-), are composed of acetonyltriphenyl-phospho-nium cations and nitrate anions that mainly inter-act through electrostatic forces. The P atom in the cation has a slightly distorted tetra-hedral environment, with C-P-C angles ranging from 104.79 (7) to 112.59 (6)°. The sum of O-N-O angles of the nitrate anion is 359.99°, reflecting its trigonal-planar character. C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds help to consolidate the crystal packing.
