Abstract
The title compound, a versatile and chemically stabilized oxidant, which is used technologically on a large scale, builds up an intercalation‐type of crystal structure with alternating sheets of sulfate and peroxomonosulfate anions, interspersed by the potassium cations. The sulfate ions are joined by a very short but nonetheless probably asymmetric hydrogen bond. At room temperature, the HSO$\rm{_{5}^{-}}$ ions show dynamic orientational/conformational disorder in the area of the hydrogenperoxo group, which disappears at 100 K. The chemical stabilization of the triple salt is ascribed to shielding of the HSO$\rm{_{5}^{-}}$ ions effected by the intercalation between the sulfate sheets and, furthermore, by the large and abundant K^+^ ions of this potassium‐rich compound.

High-temperature structural phase transitions in \(\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\) and \(\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{SeO}_{4}\) crystals have been studied by \(\mathrm{X}\)-ray diffraction. Laue and precession photographs were taken with Mo radiation at several high temperatures. Results indicate that t
