In the title one-dimensional coordination polymer, {[Cd(C(11)H(10)O(6))(H(2)O)(3)]·H(2)O}(n), the 2,2'-(5-methyl-1,3-phenyl-enedi-oxy)diacetate dianions connect Cd(II) ions in a head-to-tail fashion to generate zigzag chains. The coordination geometry of the Cd atom is distorted penta-gonal bipyramidal. There are O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl O atoms, the aqua ligands and the uncoordinated water mol-ecules. ...[more]
