catena-Poly[[(2,2′-bipyridine)nickel(II)]-μ-4,4′-oxydibenzoato]

In the title compound, [Ni(C14H8O5)(C10H8N2)]n, the NiII atom is coordinated by four O atoms of two 4,4′-oxydibenzoate (oba) dianions and two N atoms of a chelate 2,2′-bipyridine ligand to furnish a distorted octahedral coordination environment. The V-shaped oba dianion acts as a bridge between two Ni atoms to form a zigzag chain coordination polymer.
