, p. m123-m125 (2011)
The title compound, sodium bis-(6-carb-oxy-1-hy-droxy-3-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2, 1-benzoxaborol-1-yl)oxidanium, Na+·C16H 15B2O13 -, was prepared in two steps from 2-bromo-p-xylene. Its crystal structure was determined at 140 K and has triclinic (P ) symmetry. The compound presents a unique structural motif, including two units of the cyclic anhydride of boronoterephthalic acid, joined by a protonated, and thereby trivalent, oxonium center. Association in the crystal is realized by complementary hydrogen bonding of the carboxyl groups, as well as by coordination of the sodium cations to the oxygen centers on the five-membered rings.
