title: Hexaaqua-zinc(II) 4,4'-(1,2-dihy-droxy-ethane-1,2-di-yl)dibenzoate monohydrate.
abstract: The title compound, [Zn(H(2)O)(6)](C(16)H(12)O(6))·H(2)O, consists of one 4,4'-(1,2-dihy-droxy-ethane-1,2-di-yl)dibenzoate anion lying on an inversion centre, one [Zn(H(2)O)(6)](2+) dication lying on a mirror plane and one solvent water mol-ecule located on a mirror plane. The octahedral [Zn(H(2)O)(6)](2+) cations, solvent water mol-ecules and anions inter-act via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
