N2  - Crystallization of lithium(I) nitrate from 2-methylpyridine and 3,5-dimethylpyridine yields 1 : 2 and 1:3 adducts respectively, characterized by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The 1:2 adduct is a linear polymeric species with the lithium atom four- coordinated by two monodentate ligands and two oxygen atoms of O,O&#8242;- bridging nitrate groups; there are two crystallographically independent polymeric strands in the structure. The 1:3 adduct is mononuclear, again with four-coordinate lithium. The three Li-N distances range from 2.05(2) to 2.08(2)&#506;, while Li-O is 1.98(2)&#506;.
