Abstract: The title compound, [Na(NO3)(C3H7NO2)]n, was obtained unintentionally as the product of an attempted reaction of sodium molybdate in aqueous solution and the amino acid L-alanine (ala), in order to obtain a [gamma]-type octamolybdate, Na4[Mo8O26(ala)2].18H2O, coordinated by L-alanine. The coordination geometry around the Na atom can be considered as trigonal-bipyramidal, with three bidentate nitrate anions coordinating through their O atoms and two L-alanine molecules each coordinating through one carboxylate O atom.
