Poly­[[di­aqua­cobalt(II)]‐μ‐4,4′‐bi­pyridine‐κ2N:N′‐μ‐p‐phenyl­enebis­(oxy­acetato)‐κ2O:O′]

The title compound, [Co^II(C₁₀H₈O₆)(C₁₀H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, was obtained by the hydro­thermal reaction of CoSO₄ with benzene‐1,4‐dioxy­di­acetate [systematic name: p‐phenyl­ene­bis­(oxy­acetate)] and 4,4′‐bi­pyridine (4,4′‐bpy).
