Lithium dipotassium citrate monohydrate, LiK₂C₆H₅O₇(H₂O).

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of dilithium potassium citrate monohydrate, Li⁺·2K⁺·C₆H₅O₇ ^3-·H₂O or LiK₂C₆H₅O₇·H₂O, has been solved by direct methods and refined against laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional techniques. The complete citrate trianion is generated by a crystallographic mirror plane, with two C and three O atoms lying on the reflecting plane, and chelates to three different K cations. The KO₈ and LiO₄ coordination polyhedra share edges and corners to form layers lying parallel to the ac plane. An intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs between the hydroxyl group and the central car
