1,2-Ethyl-enediaminium bis-(2-benzamido-benzoate).

In the title salt, C2H10N2 (2+)·2C14H10NO3 (-), the ethyl-ene-diaminium dication lies on an inversion centre. In the anion, the benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 33.87 (9)° and intramolecular N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur. All the amino H atoms are involved in N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds link the ionic units into a three-dimensional network. In addition, the crystal structure also features weak C-H⋯O inter-actions.
