Published: November 2004

Cyclic water hexamers containing 1-D metal--water chains have been observed in the complexes of [M(H(2)biim)(2)(OH(2))(2)](ina)(2) x 4H(2)O [M = Zn (1) and Co (2), H(2)biim = 2,2'-biimidazole, ina = isoniconate]. The water clusters are trapped by the cooperative association of coordination interactions as well as hydrogen bonds.
