Abstract: In the title compound, 2Na⁺·C₈H₁₁O₁₀^-·NO₃^-, the Na^I atom is heptacoordinate with an approximately pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry. A possible strong symmetric hydrogen bond, with the H atom located at an inversion centre and an OO distance of 2.450 (2) Å, is observed in the crystal structure.
