Two nickel coordination polymers [Ni(H{sub 2}O)(C{sub 4}H{sub 4}O{sub 5})].H{sub 2}O 1 and [Ni(H{sub 2}O)(mal)(phen)] 2, have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data for 1: C{sub 4}H{sub 8}O{sub 7}Ni, monoclinic Cc, a=13.156(3)A, b=7.5436(15)A, c=9.6982(19)A, {beta}=130.96(3){sup o}, Z=4. Crystal data for 2: C{sub 16}H{sub 14}N{sub 2}O{sub 6}Ni, orthorhombic Pna2{sub 1}, a=9.6113(19)A, b=19.691(4)A, c=8.0944(16)A, Z=4. Compound 1 is constructed from [Ni(H{sub 2}O)(C{sub 4}H{sub 4}O{sub 5})] sheets pillared through {beta}-carboxylate groups into a 3D framework, which exhibits a diamond-like network. Compound 2 exhibits a 3D supramolecular network. To our knowledge, compound 1 represents the first diamond-like topology in the system of metal-malate. Other characterizations by elemental analysis, IR and TG are also described. The magnetic behavior of compound 1 has been studied.
