The title compound, [Zn2(C6H8O4)2(C10H9N3)2]·3H2O or {Zn2[(C5H4N)2NH]2[μ-(CH2)4(COO)2]2}·3H2O, was separated from the solvothermal reaction of zinc(II) sulfate heptahydrate, 2,2′-dipyridylamine and sodium adipate. The dinuclear metal complex has a centrosymmetric structure, with the ZnII atom adopting a highly distorted octahedral coordination sphere composed of four oxygen atoms from bridging adipato ligands and two pyridine nitrogen atoms. In the crystal, the title compound aggregates into a tri-periodic supramolecular structure through intermolecular hydrogen-bonding networks of the form O—H...O and N—H...O.
