Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of poly[[di-μ₃-glycine-lithium] perchlorate].

ABSTRACT: In the title salt, {[Li(C₂H₅NO₂)₂]ClO₄} _n , the Li⁺ cation is coordinated by four carboxyl-ate oxygen atoms of the glycine mol-ecules with a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The glycine exists in a zwitterionic form with protonated amino and deprotonated carboxyl-ate groups. In the crystalline state, the title salt is primarily stabilized by inter-molecular N-H⋯O and C^α-H⋯O inter-actions which inter-connect various units. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the inter-molecular H⋯O/O⋯H inter-actions are the most important contributors to the crystal packing.
