Two new complexes based on pyridine-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylic acid(H(4)pdtc) as ligand, {[Co-2(pdtc)(H2O)(4)]center dot H2O}(n) (1) and {Mn-2(pdtc)(H2O)(4)}(n) (2), have been obtained by hydrothermal syntheses and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction single crystal structure analysis, PXRD, thermal gravimetric analysis, and magnetic measurements. Complex 1 is 3D coordination polymer and complex 2 belongs to 2D grid structure by covalent bonds. In 1 and 2, the metal ions show antiferromagnetic interactions. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
