The pseudo three-dimensional coordination polymer [Zn(4,4{prime}-bipy)(H{sub 2}O)(SO{sub 4})]{center_dot}0.5H{sub 2}O (1) was synthesized by the ethanothermal reaction of 4,4{prime}-bipyridine with ZnSO{sub 4}{center_dot}7H{sub 2}O in the molar ratio of 1:1 in a sealed tube at 120 C. The compound was characterized by FT-IR, diffuse reflectance UV/vis, X-ray powder diffraction, and single crystal X-ray analysis. The structure features two-dimensional interwoven networks stacked together by the complementary hydrogen bonding between layers. Crystallographic data for 1, C{sub 10}H{sub 11}N{sub 2}O{sub 5.5}SZn are monoclinic C2/c ({number_sign}15), a = 20.545(1), b = 9.6492(6), c = 12.3949(8) {angstrom}, {beta} = 104.089(1){degree}, V = 238.3(2) {angstrom}{sup 3}, Z = 8, {rho}{sub calcd} = 1.921gcm{sup {minus}3}, {mu} = 2.260 mm{sup {minus}1}, T = 295K, R = 0.0310, R{sub w} = 0.0398, and goodness-of-fit = 1.663.
