Abstract: Hydrothermal reaction of 4-hydroxyisophthalic acid and Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O in water resulted in a new mononuclear cobalt compound, [Co(H₂O)₆](C₈H₅O₅)₂·4H₂O. The occurrence of an intricate hydrogen-bond network leads to the formation of a three-dimensional structure. The cation lies on a crystallographic inversion center, while the anion and water molecules are in general positions.
