The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(3)H(4)N(4)O(2)·0.5H(2)O, comprises two whole mol-ecules of 5-amino-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carb-oxy-lic acid in its zwitterionic form (proton transfer occurs from the carb-oxy-lic acid group to the N hetero-atom at position 1), plus one water mol-ecule of crystallization. The organic moieties are disposed into supra-molecular layers linked by N-H⋯O and N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds parallel to the bc plane. Additional O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the w ...[more]
