In the title p-toluenesulfonate salt of the drug dapsone, C12H13N2O2S+·C7H7O3S−, the dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings of the dapsone monocation is 70.19 (17)° and those between these rings and that of the p-toluenesulfonate anion are 72.34 (17) and 46.43 (17)°. All amine and aminium H atoms are involved in intermolecular N—HO hydrogen-bonding associations with sulfonyl O-atom acceptors as well as one of the sulfone O atoms, giving a three-dimensional structure.

The crystal structures of the 1:1 salts of nicotine with 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid and with 5-sulfosalicylic acid both show polymeric hydrogen-bonded and π–π-bonded structures but these differ in that in the first example, cations and anions form separate cation chains or anion columns which are unassociated through formal hydrogen bonds while in the second, hydrogen-bonded cation–anion chains are found.
