title: catena-Poly[[(2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-κN,N',N'')zinc(II)]-μ-2,2'-oxydibenzo-ato-κO:O'].
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(C(14)H(8)O(5))(C(15)H(11)N(3))](n), both the Zn(II) ion and the oxydibenzoate ligand are located on a twofold rotation axis. The Zn(II) centre is coordinated by three N atoms from a chelating 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine ligand and two O atoms from two 2,2'-oxydibenzoate ligands, forming a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination environment. Further coordination via the 2,2'-oxydibenzoate anions forms a one-dimensional coordination polymer extending parallel to [010]. Aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions are observed between adjacent terpyridine ligands with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.568 (2) Å.
