<scp>L</scp> -Valine ethyl ester hydrochloride
The title compound [systematic name: (2<i>S</i>)-1-ethoxy-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-aminium chloride], C<sub>7</sub>H<sub>16</sub>NO<sub>2</sub> <sup>+</sup>·Cl<sup>-</sup>, is the hydro-chloride salt of the ethyl ester of l-valine. In the crystal, classical hydrogen bonds of the N-H⋯Cl type are observed alongside C-H⋯O and C-H⋯Cl contacts, connecting the entities of the asymmetric unit into sheets lying perpendicular to the crystallographic <i>a</i> axis.
