Catena-Poly[(triaqua-zinc)-μ-furan-2,5-dicarboxyl-ato-κ(3)O(2):O(2),O(2')].

ABSTRACT: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Zn(C(6)H(2)O(5))(H(2)O)(3)](n), an infinite chain is formed along [001] by linking of the Zn(H(2)O)(3) entities with one carboxyl-ate group of the furan-2,5-dicarboxyl-ate ligand. Adjacent chains are linked by O(water)-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions. The Zn(H(2)O)(3)O(3) polyhedron displays a distorted octa-hedral geometry with one weak Zn-O(carboxyl-ate) coordination [2.433 (8) A°] and two water mol-ecules located in axial positions. Except for one of the axial water molecules and two adjacent H atoms, the other atoms (including H atoms) possess site symmetry m.
