Abstract
The CoII atom in the title coordination polymer, [Co(1,4-BDOA)(H2O)4]n (where 1,4-BDOA2− is benzene-1,4-dioxyacetate, C10H8O6), lies on an inversion center. The CoII atom has an octahedral coordination configuration, involving two carboxyl O atoms of different benzene-1,4-dioxyacetate ligands and four water molecules. Adjacent CoII atoms are bridged by anions with two monodentate carboxylate groups, forming a one-dimensional chain along the c axis; the Co⋯Co separation within the polymer is 14.699 (2) Å. A supramolecular network structure is formed by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
