Abstract: In the title coordination polymer, [Zn(C₈H₆ClO₃S)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, the Zn^II atom exists in an octahedral coordination environment that is formed by two carboxylate O atoms from two (4-chlorophenylsulfinyl)acetate ligands, two N atoms from two bipyridine ligands and two water molecules. The Zn^II atom lies on a twofold axis. Bridging by the bipyridine ligand leads to a linear chain structure and intermolecular O-HO hydrogen bonds link the chains into a three-dimensional network.
