Summary: | In the title salt, C6H9N2+·C6H7O2−·2H2O, the non-H atoms of the 2-amino-4-methylpyridinium cation are coplanar, with a maximum deviation of 0.010 (1) Å. In the crystal structure, the pyridinium N atom and the 2-amino group of the cation are hydrogen bonded to the carboxylate O atoms of the anion via a pair of N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming an R22(8) ring motif. The sorbate anions and water molecules are linked through O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming R1010(28) and R64(12) ring motifs. The motifs form part of a three-dimensional framework.
