In the title molecule, C24H20Cl2O2, the central methylbenzene ring forms dihedral angles of 42.47 (10) and 34.34 (10)° with the terminal 4-chlorophenyl fragments. The dihedral angle between the chlorobenzene rings is 34.45 (11)°. A weak intramolecular C—HO interaction generates an S(6) ring motif. The crystal packing exhibits weak C—HO hydrogen bonds and C—Hπ interactions.

In the cation of the title compound, C16H26NO2+·C6HCl2O4−·C4H8O2, the 1-hydroxy-cyclohexyl ring adopts a slightly distorted chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the 1-hydroxycyclohexyl and 4-hydroxyphenyl rings is 84.0 (8)°. In the anion, the hydroxyl H atom is twisted slightly out of the ring plane with a C—C—O—H torsion angle of −171.9°. Disorder was modeled for the methyl group of the acetate group in the solvate with an occupancy ratio of 0.583 (15): 0.417 (15). In the crystal, O—HO hydrogen bonds are observed between cations and between cations and anions, while bifuricated N—H(O,O) cation–anion hydrogen bonds are also present, forming chains along [010] and [100]. In addition weak cation–anion and cation–solvate C—HO interactions occur.
