The dihedral angle between the two pyridine rings is 11.5 (1)¡ã. Adjacent Zn2+ ions are bridged in a monodentate manner by the diacetate anions, forming a chain structure extending parallel to [101], and are further linked into the final three-dimensional structure by O¡ªH...O hydrogen bonds between the coordinating water molecules as donor and the non-coordinating carboxylate O atoms as acceptor atoms. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536811055310
