A pound (lb) is a measure of mass. A litre is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and,according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
If you are not convinced, consider a litre of air. How many pounds? Next consider a litre of lead. How many pounds?
The masses of equal volumes of the two substances will clearly be very different. So there is no direct conversion between mass and volume: you need to know the density of the substance to enable you to carry out the conversion.
