Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title rare earth coordination polymer, [Ce(C(9)H(3)O(6))(C(3)H(7)NO)(2)](n), contains one eight-coordinated Ce(3+) ion, one benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxyl-ate (BTC) ligand and two coordinated N,N-dimethyl-formamide (DMF) mol-ecules. The Ce(3+) ion is coordinated by six O atoms from four carboxyl-ate groups of the BTC ligands and by two O atoms from two terminal DMF mol-ecules.
