A 6-chloronicotinate (6-Clnic) salt of a one-dimensional cationic nickel(II) coordination polymer with 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy), namely, catena-poly[[[tetraaquanickel(II)]-μ-4,4′-bipyridine-κ2 N:N′] bis(6-chloronicotinate) tetrahydrate], {[Ni(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C6H3ClNO2)2·4H2O} n or {[Ni(4,4′-bpy)(H2O)4](6-Clnic)2·4H2O} n , (1), was prepared by the reaction of nickel(II) sulfate heptahydrate, 6-chloronicotinic acid and 4,4′-bipyridine in a mixture of water and ethanol. The molecular structure of 1 comprises a one-dimensional polymeric {[Ni(4,4′-bpy)(H2O)4]2+} n cation, two 6-chloronicotinate anions and four water molecules of crystallization per repeating polymeric unit. The nickel(II) ion in the polymeric cation is octahedrally coordinated by four water molecule O atoms and by two 4,4′-bipyridine N atoms in the trans position. The 4,4′-bipyridine ligands act as bridges and, thus, connect the symmetry-related nickel(II) ions into an infinite one-dimensional polymeric chain extending along the b-axis direction. In the extended structure of 1, the polymeric chains of {[Ni(4,4′-bpy)(H2O)4]2+} n , the 6-chloronicotinate anions and the water molecules of crystallization are assembled into an infinite three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network via strong O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of the representative hydrogen-bonded ring motifs: tetrameric R 2 4(8) and R 4 4(10) loops, a dimeric R 2 2(8) loop and a pentameric R 4 5(16) loop.

Single crystals of [Cd(terephthalate)(H2O)3].4H2O (1), triaquo(1,4-benzenecarboxylato-κO)cadmium tetrahydrate, are grown in a silica gel column. Crystal structure analysis shows that (1) is a polymer with metal-organic chains stacked along the a axis forming layers parallel to the ab plane. These layers are linked by an unusual hydrogen-bonded network formed by the water molecules (both `free' and coordinated ones) and the carboxylate O atoms. This network comprises tridymite-like O8 cages which `propagate' in the direction of the a axis, mimicking the way they `propagate' along the c axis in hexagonal ice.
