description The reaction of alkaline earth pentacyanocyclopentadienides with 4,4′-bipyridine in MeOH yielded undefined products of composition [M(PCC)<sub>2</sub>(Bipy)<sub>x</sub>(MeOH)<sub>y</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>z</sub>] (PCC = [C<sub>5</sub>(CN)<sub>5</sub>]<sup>−</sup>). Recrystallization from MeOH, EtOH, or n-BuOH gave crystals of [Mg(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>4</sub>(4,4′-bipy)<sub>2</sub>](PCC)<sub>2</sub>∙2BuOH (<b>1</b>), [Ca(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>4</sub>(4,4′-bipy)<sub>2</sub>](PCC)<sub>2</sub>∙(4,4′-bipy) (<b>2</b>), [Sr(MeOH)<sub>8</sub>](PCC)<sub>2</sub>∙3(4,4′-bipy) (<b>3</b>), [Sr<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>4</sub>(BuOH)<sub>4</sub>(PCC)<sub>2</sub>(µ-PCC)<sub>2</sub> (µ-4,4′-bipy)]∙4 (4,4′-bipy)∙0.29 (BuOH) (<b>4</b>), [Ba<sub>3</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>4</sub>(EtOH)<sub>10</sub> (PCC)<sub>2</sub>(µ-PCC)<sub>2</sub> (µ-4,4′-bipy)<sub>2</sub>(4,4′-bipy)](PCC)<sub>2</sub> ∙3(4,4′-bipy)∙2EtOH∙H<sub>2</sub>O (<b>5</b>) and [Ba<sub>4</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>8</sub>(BuOH)<sub>6</sub> (PCC)<sub>2</sub>(µ-PCC)<sub>6</sub> (4,4′-bipy)<sub>6</sub>]∙3(4,4′-bipy) (<b>6</b>). 4,4′-Bipyridine functions either as monodentate or bidentate ligand and is present in all cases except for <b>2</b> as lattice guest. While in compounds <b>1</b> and <b>2</b> only water is present as O-donor, the alcohol coordinates in the other compounds either exclusively (<b>3</b>) or together with water (<b>4</b>–<b>6</b>). The pentacyanocyclopentadienide does not coordinate in <b>1</b>–<b>3</b>, but is present as mono-, bi-, or tridentate ligand in <b>4</b>–<b>6</b>. In all compounds, a more or less complicated interplay of hydrogen bridges and π–π stacking is observed.
