title: Hexaaqua-zinc(II) bis-[4-(2-hydroxy-benzyl-ideneamino)benzene-sulfonate].
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(H(2)O)(6)](C(13)H(10)NO(4)S)(2), a distorted ZnO(6) octa-hedron results from the coordination by the six water mol-ecules. Only three of the water molecules are crystallographically unique, as the Zn atom lies on an inversion center. The Zn-O bond lengths are in the range 2.054 (4)-2.073 (4) Å. A network of hydrogen bonds helps to establish the crystal packing.
