Abstract: Carboxylate bridging in the title neodymium(III) coordination polymer, {[Nd₂(C₄H₄O₄)₃(H₂O)₂]·H₂O}_n, leads to a three-dimensional network architecture. One of the two independent succinate groups lies on a centre of inversion whereas the other lies on a general position; both engage in ₄-bridging. The motif is consolidated by hydrogen bonds that involve the coordinated water molecule. The uncoordinated water molecule, which lies on a twofold rotation axis, is only weakly hydrogen bonded to the network. The Nd^III atom shows tricapped trigonal prismatic coordination.
