Potassium 2-(N-hydroxy-carbamo-yl)acetate monohydrate.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the title compound, K(+)·C(3)H(4)NO(4) (-)·H(2)O, consists of potassium cations, monoanions of 2-carboxy-acetohydroxamic acid [namely 2-(N-hydroxy-carbamo-yl)acetate] and solvent water mol-ecules. The elements of the structure are united in a three-dimensional network by numerous K⋯O coordinate bonds and O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The coordination sphere of the K(+) ions may be described as a distorted double capped octa-hedron. Bond lengths and angles are similar to those in related compounds.
