Abstract
In the title complex, {[Zn(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C10H6O6S2)}n, the [Zn(4,4′-bipy)(H2O)4]2+ (4,4′-bipy is 4,4′-bipyridine) cations are linked into linear chains along [001] by the 4,4′-bipy ligands. The ZnII ion exhibits a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry in which the four water molecules are in the equatorial positions. The anions are hydrogen bonded to the polycationic chains by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. The ZnII ion, 4,4′-bipy ligand and anion lie on special positions of 2/m site symmetry.
