Abstract: The water-coordinated Cd atom in the title compound, [Cd(C₅H₃N₂O₄)(H₂O)₂], lies on an inversion centre and is N,O-chelated by imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylate anions, defining an octahedral environment. The structure is isomorphous with the Mn analogue [Ma, Chen, Chen & Liu (2003). Acta Cryst. C59, m516-m518].
