Crystallographic report: [Diaqua bis(2,2′‐bipyridine)(µ‐naphthalene‐1,4,5,8‐tetracarboxylato)]dizinc(II) tetrahydrate

The title complex features a two‐dimensional polymeric structure owing to the presence of µ₄‐bridging naphthalene‐1,4,5,8‐tetracarboxylate ligands. The trigonal bipyramidal coordination geometry for zinc is completed by a chelating 2,2′‐bipyridine and a water molecule. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
