title: Tris(1,10-phenanthroline-N,N')chromium(III) triperchlorate hydrate.
abstract: The structure of the cation in [Cr(C(12)H(8)N(2))(3)](ClO(4))(3).H(2)O consists of the Cr atom bonded to the N atoms of the three 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligands, resulting in a distorted octahedral arrangement with the six Cr-N distances ranging from 2.040 (4) to 2.055 (4) A. One of the perchlorate anions is disordered and is located around two special positions.
