The title compound, C5H9NO4·H2O, has been synthesized and crystallized. It crystallizes in Cc with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The compound is found in its zwitterionic form. D and L forms of the compound are linked in the crystal via O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, both directly between the aspartic acid-derivative entities and to the crystal water mol­ecule. A weak intramolecular N—H...O interaction is found. The carbon skeleton is slightly twisted with C—C—C—C = 166.83 (11)°. A comparison with other derivatives of aspartic acid shows only two rotamers – one with a near planar carbon skeleton and one with a significantly twisted carbon skeleton.

Experimental. Two data sets were collected. One low resolution data set to up to 0.9 Å and one medium resolution from 1.7 Å to 0.7 Å. Scan range 5°.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
