In the title compound, [Co(C(7)H(7)N(2)O(4))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·3H(2)O, the Co(II) cation, located on an inversion center, is N,O-chelated by two 5-carboxy-2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate anions and further coordinated by two water mol-ecules in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. Only one carboxy group of the anion is deprotonated, and the two carboxyl groups of the same anion are linked via an intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond. One of the lattice water mol-ecules is located on an inversion cente ...[more]
