The solvothermal reaction of 3-(4-pyri-dyl)benzoic acid and zinc nitrate yielded a 2D network with an sql topology. Both elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies confirmed the formula of the compound as {[Zn(34pba) 2 ] Á (0.5 DMF) Á (0.5 H 2 O)} n (1). At room temperature, the desolvated phase of 1, 1d, ab-sorbs methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol and 1-butanol but not water vapour.
