title: Poly[aqua-(μ(5)-2-oxido-4-sulfonato-benzoato)lanthanum(III)].
abstract: The title compound, [La(C(7)H(3)O(6)S)(H(2)O)](n), forms a three-dimensional framework in which the asymmetric unit contains one La(III) atom, one 5-sulfosalicylate (2-oxido-4-sulfonatobenzoate) ligand and one coordinated water mol-ecule. The La(III) atom is coordinated by nine O atoms from three carboxyl-ate, three sulfonate and two hydroxyl groups, and one water mol-ecule, forming a distorted trigonal-prismatic square-face tricapped geometry.
