Abstract: In the title compound, [Co(C₈H₆NO₄)₂(H₂O)₂]_n, the Co^II ion (site symmetry ) adopts a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Neighboring metal ions are bridged by 1-(carboxylatomethyl)pyridinium-3-carboxylate ligands, forming a two-dimensional coordination network which is stabilized by O-HO hydrogen bonds.
