Abstract: (NH4)[Nd(SO4)2(H2O)3]·H2O is isotypic with other members of the (NH4)[Ln(SO4)2(H2O)3]·H2O family (Ln = lanthanides). It contains NdO9 polyhedra and SO4 tetrahedra, which are linked by common edges and vertices, forming a layer-like arrangement parallel to (010). The neodymium cation is nine-coordinated in a distorted monocapped square antiprismatic geometry with two sulfate groups as chelating and two sulfate groups as bridging ligands. O-H
O and N-HO hydrogen bonds consolidate the structure into a three-dimensional network. The dependence of unit-cell dimensions of the isotypic compounds on the lanthanide atomic number is discussed.
