Abstract
In the title compound, [KYb(C2O4)2(H2O)4]n, the YbIII ion lies on a site of symmetry in a dodecahedral environment defined by eight O atoms from four oxalate ligands. The K atom lies on a different axis and is coordinated by four O atoms from four oxalate ligands and four water O atoms. The oxalate ligand has an inversion center at the mid-point of the C—C bond. The metal ions are linked by the oxalate ligands into a three-dimensional framework. O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
