Description
Summary:In the title complex, {[Pr(C2O4)1.5(H2O)2]·H2O}n, the PrIII ion, which lies on a crystallographic inversion centre, is coordinated by seven O atoms from four oxalate ligands and two O atoms from two water ligands; further Pr—O coordination from tetradentate oxalate ligands forms a three-dimensional structure. The compound crystallized as a monohydrate, the water molecule occupying space in small voids and being secured by O—H...O hydrogen bonding as an acceptor from ligand water H atoms and as a donor to oxalate O-acceptor sites.
