Abstract: In the title compound, [Co(NO₃)₂(C₁₄H₁₂N₂)(H₂O)], the Co^II atom is coordinated by a bidentate 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand, two nitrate ligands and one water molecule in a distorted octahedral environment. One of the nitrate ligands chelates in a bidentate manner and the other is monodentate. The molecule is stabilized by O-HO hydrogen bonds involving water molecules and by C-HO hydrogen bonds to form a two-dimensional network. The packing is further stablized by - interactions.
