N-acylamino acid isomers: ortho, meta, and para-methylhippuric acids, are specific xylene metabolites. Here, we report X-ray powder diffraction data, unit-cell parameters, and space groups for the three isomer (C10H11NO3), [ortho-methylhippuric acid 2 mHA, monoclinic P21/n cell, a = 8.522(1), b = 10.443(1), c = 10.734(1) Å, β = 92.43(1)°, V = 954.5(1) Å3; meta-methylhippuric acid 3 mHA, monoclinic C2/c cell a = 20.0951(2), b = 10.485(1), c = 10.074(2) Å, β = 119.08(1)°, V = 1933.9(1) Å3; para-methylhippuric acid 4 mHA, orthorhombic P212121 cell, a = 5.1794(7), b = 8.279(1), c = 22.276(2) Å, V = 955.2(2) Å3], space group. In each case, all measured diffraction peaks were indexed and are consistent with the corresponding space group.
