Reactions of Mg{sup 2+} (1), Ca{sup 2+} (2), Sr{sup 2+} (3), or Ba{sup 2+} (4) salts with hydroxyphosphonoacetic acid (HPAA) at a 1:1 ratio yield M-HPAA layered coordination polymers. The crystal structures of 3 (two phases) and 4 have been determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Both stereoisomers (R and S) of HPAA are incorporated in the metal-HPAA materials. Synergistic combinations of Sr{sup 2+} or Ba{sup 2+} and HPAA at pH 7.3 are effective corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel, but are ineffective at pH 2.0. - Graphical abstract: Syntheses, characterization and crystal structures of metal-hydroxyphosphonoacetate hybrids are reported (Metal=Sr, Ba). 2D and 3D materials were prepared. Their anti-corrosion effects were studied at pH 2.0 and 7.3. It was found that anti-corrosion efficiency was demonstrated only at pH 7.3.
