title: Diaqua-bis-[1-ethyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-7-(piperazin-1-yl)-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxyl-ato]magnesium(II) hexa-hydrate.
abstract: In the title compound, [Mg(C(16)H(17)FN(3)O(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·6H(2)O, the Mg(2+) ion (site symmetry ) exhibits a distorted MgO(6) octa-hedral geometry defined by two O,O-bidentate 1-ethyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-piperazin-yl)-3-quinoline-carb-oxyl-ate (norf) anions and two water mol-ecules. In the crystal, O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds help to establish the packing.
