Conclusion
The study presents the crystal structure of a lithium compound coordinated with acetonitrile and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anions.
Supporting Evidence
- The compound contains three symmetry independent lithium cations.
- Two lithium cations are coordinated by six oxygen atoms in a pseudo-octahedral geometry.
- The third lithium cation is four-coordinated by two oxygen and two nitrogen atoms.
Takeaway
The researchers looked at how lithium ions are arranged in a specific compound, showing how they are connected to other atoms.
Methodology
The structure was determined using X-ray diffraction techniques.
