The crystal structure of phenanthrene:picric acid molecular complex was determined by X-ray crystal analysis. Phenanthrene and picric acid molecules are stacked alternately along the c-axis, making their molecular planes parallel to each other. The intramolecular hydrogen bonding exists in a picric acid.
