A new chain‐like cadmium(II) coordination polymer containing chains of water mol­ecules

The title cadmium(II) polymer, catena‐polybis­(4‐amino­pyridine‐κN)­aqua­cadmium(II)]‐μ‐1,4‐phenyl­enediacetato‐κ⁴O,O′:O′′,O′′′] dihydrate], {Cd(C₁₀H₈O₄)(C₅H₆N₂)₂(H₂O)]·2H₂O}_n, comprises one‐dimensional wave‐like chains, in which the Cd atom is coordinated by 1,4‐phenyl­enediacetate and 4‐amino­pyridine molecules. The 1,4‐phenylenediacetate ligands lie about inversion centres. Extensive hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between the chains lead to a three‐dimensional structure. Free water mol­ecules form chains in the structure.
