A three dimensional supramolecular network, {[Co(bpee)(H2O)4] · (tp) · 2(H2O)}n (1) [bpee = trans-1,2 bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene; tp = terephthalate dianion] has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single crystal structure, magnetic measurement and thermal analysis. The structure determination reveals that the cobalt(II) ions, bridged by bpee and coordinated by four water molecules, give rise to covalently linked 1D polymeric chain. The parallel chains get involved in H-bonding with tp resulting in a 3D architecture. Upon heating 1, which is pink in color, transforms to [Co(bpee)(tp)] (1a, blue). The deaquated species (1a) reverts on keeping in humid atmosphere. Low temperature magnetic data indicate weak antiferromagnetic coupling.
