The title compound, C(2)H(7)AsO(2) or [As(CH(3))(2)O(OH)], is an organic derivative of arsinic acid, and is also known by its trivial name cacodylic acid. In contrast to the first polymorph (triclinic, space group P[Formula: see text], Z = 2), the current study revealed monoclinic symmetry (space group C2/c, Z = 8) for the second polymorph. The configuration of the tetra-hedral mol-ecule shows approximate C(s) symmetry. Strong O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules to infinite zigzag chains ...[more]
