Two novel zinc coordination polymers {[Zn(PhCOO) 2 (bmix)]} n 1 and {[Zn(ada)(bmix)]·(H 2 O) 2 } n 2 (bmix = 1,4‐bis(2‐methylimidazole‐1‐ylmethyl)benzene, H 2 ada = adipic acid), were obtained by the hydrothermal reactions of bmix and zinc acetate with two carboxylate anions, respectively. Structural analyses show that complex 1 possess a one‐dimensional helix chain structure, 2 takes two‐dimensional corrugated (4,4) layer motif. The structural differences of two complexes indicate that organic carboxylate anions play important roles in the formation of such zinc(II) coordination architectures.
