Poly[tetra­aqua­(5-hy­droxy­pyridin-1-ium-3-carboxyl­ato-κO3)tris­(μ-oxalato-κ4O1,O2:O1′,O2′)dieuropium(III)]

2013 
In the title compound, [Eu2(C6H5NO3)2(C2O4)3(H2O)4]n, the EuIII atom is bonded to one O atom from a monodentate 5-hy­droxy­pyridin-1-ium-3-carboxyl­ate ligand, six O atoms from three oxalate ligands and two water mol­ecules, exhibiting a highly distorted tricapped trigonal geometry. Three independent oxalate ligands, each lying on an inversion center, bridge the EuIII atoms, forming a brickwall-like layer parallel to (001), which is stabilized by intra­layer O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The layers are further linked through inter­layer O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions between the pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5741 (14) A] into a three-dimensional supra­molecular network.
