Single crystals of PT(C4O4H3)(3). 8H(2)O grew by slow evaporation of a solu
tion which had been obtained by compound (P (1) over bar, Z = 2, a = 728.63
(3), b = 1040.23(3), c = 1676.05(8) pm, alpha = 72.108(2)degrees beta = 87.

n ninefold coordination of dissolving Pr(OH)3 in aqueous maleic acid. The t
riclinic oxygen atoms which belong to two monodentate maleate ions and seve

respective oxide in two steps upon further heating. Evaporation of a solut
ion of PT(C4O4H3)(3). 8H(2)O which contained additional Cl- ions yielded si

atter belong to four H2O molecules and three maleate ions. Two of the latte
