ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of poly[di-hydroxido(μ6-terepthalato)dizinc], [Zn2(C8H4O4)(OH)2] n , was solved and refined using synchrotron powder data, and the structures of the isostructural Co and Ni analogues were refined using laboratory powder X-ray data. The structure of [Co2(C8H4O4)(OH)2] n has been reported previously in space group C2/m, which yields disordered terephthalate anions. Doubling the c-axis of that cell results in an ordered model in space group C2/c. The octa-hedral MO6 coordination polyhedra of the metal cations share edges, forming chains running parallel to the b
