Crystal structure of poly[[mu]-acetato-bis­[[mu]-2-oxo-2-(quinolin-8-yl)ethano­ato]tris­odium]

The title compound [Na3(C11H6NO3)2(C2H3O2)]n, crystallized through diffusion of diethyl ether into methanol as needles. There are three crystallographically independent Na+ cations present, each exhib­it­ing a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry, two through coordination by five O atoms and one N atom, and one through coordination by six O atoms. A series of inter­molecular O...Na and N...Na contacts leads to the formation of chains along the a-axis direction
