title: Supercell and subcell description of the crystal structure of triammonium bis(O-phospho-L-serinate) trihydrate.
abstract: The X-ray diffraction pattern obtained for a crystal of triammonium bis(O-phospho-L-serinate) trihydrate at 100 K displays the presence of weak superstructure reflections with odd l indices. Omission of the superstructure reflections leads to orthorhombic Laue symmetry. The structure may be solved and refined in the space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) as an average structure omitting the weak reflections. The model reveals the presence of O-phospho-L-serinate monoanions, ammonium cations and partly disordered water molecules. The structure solution for the whole data set could be obtained only in the space group P2(1). There are two monoanions and two dianions of O-phospho-L-serinate per asymmetric unit, as well as six ordered ammonium cations and six water molecules.
