I have not done this exact experiment, but I have done things that are similar. Imagine a solution of aniline in diethyl ether, and a solution of HCl in diethyl ether. Now imagine mixing them. HCl will protonate aniline to create a salt that is insoluble, meaning that it will fall out of the organic solvent. We collect the crystals of this salt using filtration. The crystalline material could be written as C6H5NH2•HCl, although this notation might mislead the unwary. One could also write C6H5NH3+Cl-.
