Hydrogenoxalate or hydrogen oxalate (IUPAC name: 2-Hydroxy-2-oxoacetate) is an anion with chemical formula HC

or HO–C(=O)–CO

, derived from oxalic acid by the loss of a single proton; or, alternatively, from the oxalate anion C

by addition of a proton. The name is also used for any salt containing this anion. Especially in older literature, hydrogenoxalates may also be referred to as bioxalates, acid oxalates, or monobasic oxalates. Hydrogenoxalate is amphoteric, in that it can react both as an acid or a base.

Well characterized salts include sodium hydrogenoxalate (NaHC

Structure

Most hydrogenoxalate salts are hydrated. For example, potassium hydrogen oxalate crystallizes as 2KHC
