The asymmetric unit of the title one-dimensional coordination polymer, {[Co(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C9H6O5)·H2O}n, comprises two half-cations, [Co(4,4′-bipy)(H2O)4]22+ (4,4′-bipy is 4,4′-bipyridine), one 3-carboxylatophenoxyacetate (3-CPOA2−) dianion and one non-coordinated water molecule. The CoII ions, both of which are located on inversion centres, have approximately octahedral geometries, involving two N atoms of the centrosymmetric 4,4′-bipy ligand and four water molecules. Adjacent CoII atoms are linked by 4,4′-bipy ligands into a chain, the shortest CoCo separation within the polymeric chain being 11.456 (2) Å. The chains are further linked by hydrogen-bonding and π–π stacking interactions, generating a three-dimensional network.

The crystal structure of the title complex, {[Zn(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C9H6O5)·H2O}n, is built of infinite polymeric cationic {[Zn(4,4′-bipy)(H2O)4]2+}n chains (4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine), 3-carboxylatophenoxyacetate dianions (3-CPOA2−) and solvent water molecules. Both symmetry-independent Zn atoms and 4,4′-bipy ligands occupy special positions on crystallographic inversion centres and form two symmetry-independent cationic chains stretching along the c axis of the crystal. Each of the two Zn atoms has an octahedral coordination environment formed by the O atoms of four water molecules and the N atoms of two 4,4′-bipy ligands in trans positions with respect to each other. The 4,4′-bipy ligands perform a bridging function, linking together two adjacent Zn atoms in the chain. The shortest ZnZn separation within the chains is equal to the c translation [11.425 (2) Å]. The chains are further linked into a three-dimensional supramolecular network via hydrogen-bonding and π–π stacking interactions, involving the dianion and the coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules.

The water-coordinated Ca atom in the layer structure of the title compound, [Ca(C10H8O6)(H2O)2]n, is connected to a carboxyl O atom of one —O—CH2—CO2 arm of the dicarboxylate dianion; it is also linked to an O atom of a carboxylate group of this arm of an adjacent dianion, as well as to the O atoms of the other arm of two different dianions. The six-coordinate octahedral geometry is distorted, owing to a weak interaction with the ether O atom of one of the arms; the dianion functions in a μ4-bridging mode.
