A new sulfate-bridged coordination polymer, {(4,4'-bpyH(2))[Fe-3(4,4'-bpy)(
3)(SO4)(4)(H2O)(6)]. 10H(2)O}(n), was synthesized and crystallographically
characterized. This complex shows a novel three-dimensional (3-D) log-cabin
type structure constructed from one-dimensional (1-D) [Fe(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)(2
)](n) cationic chain, free protonated 4,4'-bpy, and sulfate dianion. This s
tructure shows channel-like cavities with dimensions of about 3 Angstrom x
4 Angstrom.
