Abstract

The title compound, [Ni(C(8)H(3)NO(6))(C(12)H(8)N(2))(H(2)O)], contains an Ni(II) ion, a 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand, a 4-carb-oxy-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ate (Hptc(2-)) anion and a coordinated water mol-ecule. The Ni(II) atom exhibits a distorted octa-hedral N(3)O(3) environment. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding between coordinated water and carboxyl-ate O atoms, as well as π-π stacking inter-actions [inter-planar distances between phen rings = 3.293 (2) Å] lead to a supermolecular assembly.
