Each oxygen atom of a triflate ion coordinates a different lithium center and each lithium center is coordinated by
three different triflate ions to give the observed folded ladder chain structure. The lithium ions complete their coordination spheres
through coordination of an acetonitrile nitrogen to give each a tetrahedral geometry. This structure has
not been published and is useful for those instructors who desire a higher level of grade security.
Besides, it is kind of cute.
