In the title complex, [Nd(C(5)H(3)N(2)O(2))(C(2)O(4))(H(2)O)(2)](n), the Nd(III) atom is ten-coordinated by one N atom and three O atoms from two pyrazine-2-carboxyl-ate ligands, four O atoms from two oxalate ligands and two water mol-ecules in a distorted bicapped square-anti-prismatic geometry. The two crystallographically independent oxalate ligands, each lying on an inversion center, act as bridging ligands, linking Nd atoms into an extended zigzag chain. Neighboring chains are linked by the ...[more]
