Aluminium acetate or aluminium ethanoate[1] (also "aluminum ~"), sometimes abbreviated AlAc in geochemistry,[2] can refer to a number of different salts of aluminium with acetic acid. In the solid state, three salts exist under this name: basic aluminium monoacetate, (HO)2AlCH3CO2, basic aluminium diacetate, HOAl(CH3CO2)2,[3] and neutral aluminium triacetate, Al(CH3CO2)3.[3] In aqueous solution, aluminium triacetate hydrolyses to form a mixture of the other two,[1] and all solutions of all three can be referred to as "aluminium acetate" as the species formed co-exist and inter-convert in chemical equilibrium.
