%X A single-crystal, room-temperature, X-ray structure determination is recorded for the title compound, NaNd(tdga)2 (&#8216;tdga2-&#8217; &#8801; &#8722;OCOCH2SCH2COO-). Crystals are monoclinic, space group Pc, a 9&#183;5058(4), b 7&#183;323(1), c 9&#183;402(4) &#197;, &#946; 97&#183;71(2)&#176;, Z = 2 f.u., conventional R on &#124;F&#124; being 0&#183;028 for No 1054 independent &#8216;observed&#8217; (I &#62; 3&#963;(I)) diffractometer reflections. The compound is a novel polymeric array; the neodymium atom is eight-coordinated by ligand oxygen atoms at distances ranging from 2&#183;43(2) to 2&#183;54(1) &#197;. A redetermination of the parent thiodiglycolic acid is also recorded (orthorhombic Pnam, a 5&#183;0444(8), b 6&#183;690(1), c 17&#183;73(1) &#197;, Z = 4, R 0&#183;038 for No 866).
