Abstract Here, we examine the role of (H2O) in controlling polymerization of structural units in simple hydrated oxysalt compounds of the form Mg(SO4)(H2O)n. As the number of (H2O) groups in the structure increases, the number of M—M (M = Mg) linkages decreases in a 1 : 1 ratio with the (increasing) number of (H2O) groups until no M—M linkages are left, and then the number of M—T (T = S) linkages decreases with the (increasing) number of (H2O) groups until no M—T linkages are left (at n = 6). The change in bond topology is monotonic as a function of (H2O) content except for n = 5 where, instead of replacing an M—T linkage, the fifth (H2O) group is held in the structure by hydrogen bonds only. The valence-sum rule of bond-valence theory constrains the anion-coordination numbers to [2], [3] and [4] in these structures. The handshaking lemma of graph theory allows us to derive an equation relating the coordination numbers of the cations (Mg = [6], S6+ = [4], H = [2]) to the coordination numbers of the anions. There are four integer solutions to this equation, and the Mg(SO4)(H2O)n structures correspond to two of these solutions. Structures are known for n = 0–2.5, 4–7, 11; considering the variations in connectivity and coordination number as a function of n, a possible structural arrangement is proposed for Mg(SO4)(H2O)3.
