3-Amino­pyridin-1-ium 3-carb­oxy­benzo­ate

In the title organic salt, C(5)H(7)N(2) (+)·C(8)H(5)O(4) (−), the carb­oxy­lic group is nearly coplanar with the benzene ring [dihedral angle 1.9 (4)°] whereas the carboxyl­ate group is twisted relative to the benzene ring by 13.6 (4)°. In the crystal, N-H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the components into a three-dimensional framework consisting of stacks of alternating pairs of anions and cations exhibiting π–π stacking inter­actions with centroid–centroid distances in the range 3.676 (2)–3.711 (1) Å. The π–π stacks extend along [110] and [-110].
