Polymeric diaquabis[mu4-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylato(3-)](mu-4,4'-bipyridine)trizinc(II).
The solvothermal reaction of zinc(II) acetate with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and 4,4'-bipyridine in 1-butanol and acetic acid solution gives the title complex, [Zn(3)(C(9)H(3)O(6))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(H(2)O)(2)](n). There are two different coordination environments for the Zn atom, namely ZnNO(2)(H(2)O) and ZnO(4); in the latter case, the Zn atom lies on a twofold symmetry axis. Carboxylate-bridged Zn(3)(O(2)C)(6) clusters are connected through 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate and 4,4'-bipyridine ligands (which lie about inversion centers), yielding a three-dimensional framework.
