Poly[[tetra-aqua-tris-(?(3)-hexane-1,6-di-carboxyl-ato)diterbium(III)] 0.25-hydrate].

ABSTRACT: In the title terbium coordination polymer, {[Tb(2)(C(6)H(8)O(4))(3)(H(2)O)(4)]·0.25H(2)O}(n), the Tb(III) atom is nine-coordinated, forming a TbO(9) polyhedra. Furthermore, two symmetric TbO(9) polyhedra share their edges, forming Tb(2)O(16) dimers, which are linked by adipate bridges into a layered structure. Inter-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonds link these layers into a three-dimensional network. One of the C atoms of the adipate ligand is disordered over two positions with site-occupancy factors of 0.622?(9) and 0.378?(9). The structure also contains a disordered mol-ecule of water of hydration, lying close to a special position, with partial occupancy.
