In the title coordination polymer, {[Zn(C(9)H(7)NO(4))(C(10)H(14)N(4))]·2H(2)O}(n), the Zn(II) ion displays a distorted tetra-hedral geometry with two imidazole N atoms from two 1,1'-(butane-1,4-di-yl)bis-(imidazole) (bbi) ligands and two carboxyl-ate O atoms from two 2,6-dimethyl-pyridine-3,5-dicarboxyl-ate (dpdc) ligands. The bbi and dpdc ligands bridge the Zn(II) ions, forming layers parallel to (011). O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and π-π inter-actions between the imidazole rings [centroid- ...[more]
