The reaction of Zn(NO3)2·3(H2O) with trans-aconitic acid, in presence of chelating Lewis bases, leads to the formation of the 1D polymers [Zn(N–N)(LH)]·nH2O, where LH3=trans-aconitic acid, 1 : N–N=1,10-phenanthroline (phen), n=1, 2 : N–N=2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), n=2. 3D supramolecular assemblies are constructed through H-bonding and stacking interactions.
