Catena-Poly[[[aqua-(glycine-κO)lithium]-μ-glycine-κ(2) O:O'] bromide].

ABSTRACT: In the title coordination polymer, {[Li(C2H5NO2)2(H2O)]Br} n , the Li(+) cation is coordinated by three carboxyl-ate O atoms of zwitterionic glycine mol-ecules and by a water mol-ecule, forming a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. One of the two glycine mol-ecules bridges neighbouring complexes, forming an infinite chain parallel to the c axis. Polymeric chains are further linked by extensive hydrogen bonds involving the Br(-) anions and glycine and water mol-ecules, producing a three-dimensional network.
