The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Cd(3)(C(8)H(5)N(2)O(2))(2)(SO(4))(2)(H(2)O)(3)](n), contains three Cd(II) ions, two sulfate anions, two 1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxyl-ate (H(2)bic) ligands and three coordinated water mol-ecules. One Cd(II) ion is six-coordinated and exhibits a distorted octa-hedral geometry, while the other two Cd(II) ions are seven-coordinated, displaying a distorted penta-gonal-bipyramidal geometry. The Cd(II) ions are bridged by two types of sulfate anions, producing inorganic chains along [100].

In the title one-dimensional coordination polymer, {[Eu(C(9)H(4)N(2)O(4))(C(9)H(5)N(2)O(4))(H(2)O)(3)]·2H(2)O}(n), one of the 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxyl-ate (Hbdc) ligands is protonated at the imidazole group (H(2)bdc). The Eu(III) ion is eight-coordinated by two O atoms from two Hbdc ligands, three O atoms from two H(2)bdc ligands and three water mol-ecules, showing a distorted square-anti-prismatic geometry. The Eu(III) ions are bridged by the carboxyl-ate groups of the Hbdc and H(2)bdc ligands, forming a chain along [110], with an Eu⋯Eu separation of 5.

In the title coordination polymer, [Ag(C(14)H(8)NO(2))](n), the Ag(I) cation is coordinated by two O atoms and one N atom from two symmetry-related acridine-9-carboxyl-ate ligands in a distorted trigonal-planar geometry. The metal atoms are connected by the ligands to form chains running parallel to the b axis. π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-to-centroid distances 3.
