Article: Recent studies from Wroclaw University add new data to crystallography.(Report)

According to recent research from Wroclaw, Poland, "This study presents the coordination modes and crystal organization of a calcium-potassium coordination polymer, poly[hexaaquabis(mu(4)-4-carboxybenzenesulfonato-kappa O-4(1):O-1': O1 '': O-4)-bis(mu(3)-4-carboxybenzenesulfonato-kappa(2) O-1: O-1') calcium(II)dipotassium(I)], [CaK2(C7H5O5S)(4)(H2O)(6)](n), displaying a novel two-dimensional framework. The potassium ion is seven-coordinated by four sulfonate and one carboxyl O atom located on five different acid ligands, two of which are unique, and by two symmetry-independent water O atoms."

"A pair of close potassium ions share two inversion-related sulfonate ...
