title: Bis(μ-4-hydroxy-benzoato-κO:O')bis-[triaqua-bis(4-hydroxy-benzoato)-κO;κO,O'-terbium(III)] deca-hydrate.
abstract: The title dinuclear compound, [Tb(2)(C(7)H(5)O(3))(6)(H(2)O)(6)]·10H(2)O, lies on a center of inversion and the two Tb(III) atoms are bridged by two 4-hydroxy-benzoate anions; each metal atom is further coordinated by one monodentate anion and chelated by the third anion. The eight-coordinate geometry approximates a square anti-prism. Hydrogen bonds of the O-H⋯O type connect the uncoordinated water mol-ecules to the dinuclear species, forming a three-dimensional network.
