Poly[(acetato-κO,O')aqua-(μ(4)-1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxyl-ato-κN:O,O:O,O:O)praseodymium(III)].

In the title complex, [Pr(C9H4N2O4)(C2H3O2)(H2O)]n, the PrIII ion is coordinated by five O atoms and one N atom from four benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate ligands, two O atoms from an acetate ligand and one water molecule, giving a tricapped trigonal-prismatic geometry. The benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate and acetate ligands connect the PrIII ions, forming a layer in the ac plane; the layers are further linked by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions between neighboring pyridine rings [the centroid–centroid distance is 3.467 (1) Å], assembling a three-dimensional supramolecular network. The acetate methyl group is disordered over two positions with site-occupancy factors of 0.75 and 0.25.

Bis(2,2′-bipyridine)(2-hy­droxy-2,2-diphenyl­acetato)­copper(II) nitrate dihydrate

In the title complex, [Cu(C14H11O3)(C10H8N2)2]NO3·2H2O, the CuII atom is coordinated by four N atoms from two 2,2′-bipyridine ligands and two O atoms from one benzilate ligand in a distorted octahedral geometry. A supramolecular network is formed via intermolecular O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions. π–π stacking interactions between neighboring pyridine rings are also present, the centroid—centroid distance being 3.808 (2) Å.
