Di­aqua­bis­[4-(di­methyl­amino)pyridine-κN1]bis­[2-(1,3-dioxo-2,3-di­hydro-1H-isoindol-2-yl)acetato-κO1]cobalt(II)

In the mononuclear title complex, [Co(C10H6NO4)2(C7H10N2)2(H2O)2], the CoII ion is located on an inversion centre and has a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry of type CoN2O4 by two N atoms from the two 4-(di­methyl­amino)­pyridine (DMAP) ligands, two carboxyl­ate O atoms from the two deprotonated N-phthaloylglycine (Nphgly) ligands [systematic name: 2-(1,3-dioxo-2,3-di­hydro-1H-isoindol-2-yl)acetate] and two coordination water mol­ecules. In the crystal, O—H⋯O, C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions link the mol­ecules into the supra­molecular structure.
