The novel mixed salt of sodium acetate and perchlorate reported herein, Na 4 (OAc) 3 (ClO 4 ), has a distinctive lattice structure formed from sodium acetate planes linked together by sodium perchlorate cylinders. In total contrast to the component salts, the structure contains channels parallel to the c axis. The integration of the two molecular‐level structural motifs of the two component salts thus leads to a supramolecular/macromolecular‐level structure which is very different from those of the components. A template mechanism is implicated in the formation. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004)
