Abstract

Crystal and X-ray powder diffraction data are presented for the title compound. The powder pattern was indexed and refined on a monoclinic cell with a=17.356(6) Å, b=3.528(1) Å, c=11.285(1) Å, β=94.23(2) Å. The cell volume and Dm=1.772 g/cm3 give Z=4. The space group could not be determined with certainty. The planes of the urate anions likely are stacked parallel or nearly parallel to (010).
