2O (
2), and their characterization by infrared spectroscopy,thermogravimetry, elemental analysis, manganometric titration, surface area measurement,bond valence sum calculations, temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurement,and single-crystal X-ray structure analyses is described. Both compounds exhibit remarkablethermal stability. The three-dimensional structures of
1 and
2 are composed of fused {VO
4}motifs linked by {Co(4,4'-bipy)} coordination polymers. The structure of
1 is comprised of{CoO
3N
2} trigonal bipyramids, linked in two dimensions by corner-sharing {VO
4} tetrahedraand in the third dimension by the 4,4'-bipyridine ligands. In the bimetallic layers, the cobaltcenters are bridged alternately by {VO
4} and {V
2O
7} units, generating alternating eight-membered {Co
2V
2O
4} and twelve-membered {Co
2V
4O
6} rings. The crystal structure of
2consists of a novel three-dimensional network containing two types of octahedral Co
2+ ionslinked by a {V
2O
7} group. The cobalt centers in
2 are linked in three dimensions by bridging4,4'-bipyridine ligands. The structure contains rather large channels parallel to the
c-axis.A disordered water molecule of crystallization is present in the channels. Crystal data forC
