Benzamide-picric acid (1/1).

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(7)H(7)NO·C(6)H(3)N(3)O(7), one of the nitro groups of the picric acid mol-ecule lies in the plane of the attached benzene ring [dihedral angle = 1.4 (1)°] while the other two are twisted away by 9.9 (1) and 30.3 (1)°. In the benzamide mol-ecule, the amide group is almost coplanar with the benzene ring [dihedral angle = 4.4 (1)°]. An intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S6 ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a ribbon-like structure along the b axis by O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O inter-molecular hydrogen bonds. In addition, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and short O⋯O contacts [2.828 (2) Å] are observed.
