title: Diaqua-bis-[2-(5-isopropyl-5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)nicotinato]cobalt(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [Co(C(13)H(14)N(3)O(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], the Co(II) atom has a distorted octa-hedral coordination, formed by four N atoms from two (±)-2-(5-isopropyl-5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)nicotinate ligands and two O atoms from two water mol-ecules. Intra-molecular N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are present. In the crystal, inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the complex mol-ecules into a chain along [010].
