The crystal structure of the title compound, lithium (1‐carboxyethenyloxy)phosphonate monohydrate, Li+·C3H4O6P−·H2O, is governed by lithium–oxygen interactions and hydrogen bonds. The Li+ cation is tetrahedrally coordinated by phosphate and water O atoms. The phosphoenolpyruvate monoanions form carboxyl‐to‐carboxyl and phosphate‐to‐water hydrogen bonds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
