Abstract

The title compound, [Zn(C(8)H(4)O(4))(C(13)H(14)N(2))](n), was obtained by the hydro-thermal reaction of Zn(OAc)(2)·H(2)O with 1,3-di-4-pyridylpropane (bpp) and isophthalic acid (H(2)ip). The Zn(II) ion is coordinated by two bpp and two ip ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral environment. Each ligand coordinates in a bridging mode to connect Zn(II) ions into a three-dimensional diamondoid-type structure.
