Abstract
The title complex, K[KLa(HTTHA)(H2O]·8H2O, was synthesized in aqueous solution and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. In the complex, the ten-coordinated lanthanum ion is bonded by four nitrogen atoms and six carboxyl oxygen atoms of the same triethylenetetraaminehexaacetic acid (H6TTHA) molecule. The coordination polyhedron of lanthanum can be described as a distorted bicapped square antiprism. The crystal is composed of one dimensional infinite chains.
