title: catena-Poly[[aqua-[3-(3-pyrid-yl)acrylato]gadolinium(III)]-bis-[μ-3-(3-pyrid-yl)acrylato]].
abstract: In the title compound, [Gd(C(8)H(6)NO(2))(3)(H(2)O)](n), the gadolinium(III) ion is coordinated by eight carboxyl-ate O atoms and one water mol-ecule. The carboxyl-ate ligands bridge pairs of gadolinium(III) ions, forming a zigzag chain along [100]. Hydrogen bonds link the chains into sheets parallel to (001).
