The title compound, N-methyltaurine, C3H9NO3S, was isolated from the marine sponge Xestospongia pacifica from Swain Reefs, Queensland. The crystal structure displays extensive N-HO hydrogen bonding interactions between the amine H atoms and sulfonyl O atoms in the zwitterionic molecule.The title compound, N-methyltaurine, C3H9NO3S, was isolated from the marine sponge Xestospongia pacifica from Swain Reefs, Queensland.
