Oxalate (systematic IUPAC name: ethanedioate) is an anion with the chemical formula C 2 O 2− 4.This dianion is colorless. It occurs naturally, including in some foods. It forms a variety of salts, for example sodium oxalate (Na 2 C 2 O 4), and several esters such as dimethyl oxalate ((CH 3) 2 C 2 O 4).

In chemistry, an oxocarbon anion is a negative ion consisting solely of carbon and oxygen atoms, and therefore having the general formula C x O n− y for some integers x, y, and n. The most common oxocarbon anions are carbonate, CO 2− 3, and oxalate, C 2 O 2− 4. There are however a large number of stable anions in this class, including ...
In addition to the neutral rubidium oxalate Rb 2 C 2 O 4, there is also an acidic salt, rubidium hydrogen oxalate with the formula RbHC 2 O 4, which is isomorphic to potassium hydrogen oxalate KHC 2 O 4 [10] and forms monoclinic crystals, [11] and an acidic dioxalate with the formula RbHC 2 O 4 ·H 2 C 2 O 4, which exists as a dihydrate, has a ...
The carbonate oxalates are mixed anion compounds that contain both carbonate (CO 3) and oxalate (C 2 O 4) anions. Most compounds incorporate large trivalent metal ions, such as the rare earth elements. Some carbonate oxalate compounds of variable composition are formed by heating oxalates. [1]
Sodium oxalate, or disodium oxalate, is a chemical compound with the chemical formula Na 2 C 2 O 4. It is the sodium salt of oxalic acid. It contains sodium cations Na + and oxalate anions C 2 O 2− 4. It is a white, crystalline, odorless solid, that decomposes above 290 °C. [2]
Its formula is often written as (NH 4) 2 C 2 O 4 or (COONH 4) 2. It is an ammonium salt of oxalic acid. It consists of ammonium cations ([NH 4] +) and oxalate anions (C 2 O 2− 4). The structure of ammonium oxalate is ([NH 4] +) 2 [C 2 O 4] 2−. Ammonium oxalate sometimes comes as a monohydrate ([NH 4] 2 C 2 O 4 ·H 2 O). It is a colorless or ...
Hydrogenoxalate or hydrogen oxalate (IUPAC name: 2-Hydroxy-2-oxoacetate) is an anion with chemical formula HC 2 O − 4 or HO−C(=O)−CO − 2, derived from oxalic acid by the loss of a single proton; or, alternatively, from the oxalate anion C 2 O 2− 4 by addition of a proton. The name is also used for any salt containing this anion.
