title: Bis(2,6-dihy-droxy-benzoato-κO,O)(nitrato-κO,O')bis-(1,10-phenanthroline-κN,N')neodymium(III).
abstract: In the mononuclear title complex, [Nd(C(7)H(5)O(4))(2)(NO(3))(C(12)H(8)N(2))(2)], the Nd(III) atom is in a distorted bicapped square-anti-prismatic geometry formed by four N atoms from two chelating 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligands, four O atoms from two 2,6-dihy-droxy-benzoate (DHB) ligands and two O atoms from a nitrate anion. π-π stacking inter-actions between the phen and DHB ligands of adjacent complexes [centroid-centroid distances = 3.520 (6) and 3.798 (6) Å] stabilize the crystal structure. Intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed in the DHB ligands.
