3-aqua-
4-terephthalato-dirubidium]Abstract: Colourless platelets of dirubidium terephthalate dihydrate, [Rb2(C8O4H4)(H2O)2]n, were obtained by hydrothermal reaction of Rb2CO3 and terephthalic acid in demineralized water followed by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature. Rubidium is coordinated by four O atoms from four water molecules and four O atoms from four different centrosymmetric terephthalates. The metal centers are connected by the water molecules, forming a double layer perpendicular to [100]. These double layers are linked by the terephthalate dianions, forming a three-dimensional framework structure.
