Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C₂H₈N₂)₂(H₂O)₂](C₁₀H₈NO₃S)₂·2H₂O, the Cu^II complex cation, located on an inversion centre, has a distorted octahedral coordination geometry formed by two ethylenediamine and two water molecules. The distance of 3.4987  (11)  Å between the centroids of neighbouring parallel aromatic rings of aminonaphthalenesulfonate anions suggests the existence of - stacking.
