Abstract: The Co atom in the title compound, [Co(C₂₀H₃₈N₄O₄)]·4H₂O, is chelated by the four N atoms of the macrocycle and also covalently bonded to two carboxylate O atoms in a cis-N₄O₂Co octahedral environment. The mononuclear molecule interacts with the non-coordinated water molecules by way of O-HO interactions to form a three-dimensional network.
