Single crystals of LiClO 4 were obtained during attempts to prepare lithium containing rare earth perchlorates from a lithium perchlorate melt. In the crystal structure of LiClO 4 (ortho‐rhombic, Pnma , Z =4, a = 865.7(1), b = 691.29(9) pm, c = 483.23(6), R all = 0.0273) the Li + ions are in distorted octahedral coordination of oxygen atoms. The octahedra are linked via common edges to chains according to 1 [LiO 2/1 O 4/2 ] which run in the [010] direction. The perchlorate ions are almost ideal tetrahedra.
