In the title compound, C12H10N2·C8H6O4, the contains two halves of 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (bpe) molecules and one benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1,3-H2BDC) molecule. These bpe and 1,3-H2BDC molecules are linked by classical O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming an extended one-dimensional zigzag chain. Each chain is further linked with neighboring ones by π–π interactions between the pyridine and aromatic rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.9306 (15) Å] and the pyridine rings of pairs of symmetry-related molecules [centroid–centroid distances = 3.5751 (15), 3.7350 (15) and 3.6882 (15) Å], with the formation of a three-dimensional supramolecular framework.

To a 10 mL Pyrex glass tube was loaded 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (18 mg, 0.1 mmol), benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (17 mg, 0.1 mmol) and 3 ml of H2O. The tube was sealed and heated in an oven to 423 K for three days, and then cooled to ambient temperature at the rate of 5 K h-1 to form yellow crystals.
All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions (C–H = 0.94Å for phenyl, pyridyl and vinyl groups, O–H = 0.83Å for OH group) and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

In the past decades, the supramolecular synthesis of multicomponent organic materials has attracted considerable attention due to their functional properties (Lehn, 1990). The facile way of synthesizing these co-crystals is to employ the components containing complementary functional groups such as pyridine and carboxylic acid. Owing to the hydrogen-bonds and π–π stacking between these types of groups, several multicomponent cocrystals containing various network geometries were prepared using these two functional groups (Biradha, 2003; Shan & Jones, 2003; Weyna et al., 2009).
The hydrothermal reaction of 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (bpe) with benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1,3-H2BDC) resulted in the cocrystals of C12H10N2.C8H6O4, I. In I, the asymmetric unit is formed by two halves of bpe molecules and one 1,3-H2BDC molecule (Fig. 1). These molecular units are linked by classical O–H···N hydrogen-bonds (O1–H1···N1iii, O1···N1iii = 2.597 (2)Å; O3–H3···N2, O3···N2 = 2.618 (2)Å) forming an extended one-dimensional zigzag chain (Table 1, Fig. 2). Furthermore, the adjacent one-dimensional chains are interconnected each other through π–π interactions between pairs of molecules [Cg1···Cg1iv = 3.5751 (15)Å; Cg1···Cg3 = 3.9306 (15)Å; Cg2···Cg2v = 3.7350 (15)Å; Cg2···Cg2vi = 3.7350 (15)Å form a three-dimensional framework (Fig. 3). The Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3, are the centroids of the rings N1/C9-C13, N2/C15-C19 and C1-C6. Symmetry codes: (iii) -x+1, y, z; (iv) -x+1, -y+1, -z+2; (v) -x+1, -y+1, -z+1; (vi) -x+2, -y+1, -z+1 .
