The title compound, ammonium catena-[monoboro-monodihydrogendiborate-monohydrogenphosphate] hemihydrate, was obtained under solvothermal conditions using glycol as the solvent. The crystal structure is constructed of one-dimensional infinite borophosphate chains, which are interconnected by ammonium ions and water molecules via a complex hydrogen-bond network to form a three-dimensional structure. The water molecules of crystallization are disordered over inversion centres, and their H atoms were not located.

The crystal structure of L-2-aminobutyric acid, an L-alanine analogue with an ethyl rather than a methyl side chain, has proved elusive owing to problems growing diffraction quality crystals. Good diffraction data have now been obtained for two polymorphs, in space groups P21 and I2, revealing surprisingly complex, yet fully ordered crystalline arrangements with Z′ = 4. The closely related structures are divided into hydrophilic and hydrophobic layers, the latter being the thinnest ever found for an amino acid (other than α-glycine). The hydrophobic layers furthermore contain conspicuous pseudo-centers-of-symmetry, leading to overall centrosymmetric intensity statistics. Uniquely, the four molecules in the asymmetric unit can be divided into two pairs that each forms an independent hydrogen-bond network.
