X.-S. Tai, J. Yin and M.-Y. Hao

Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Mg(C₁₀H₆NO₂)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O·2CH₃OH, the Mg atom (site symmetry ) adopts a slightly distorted trans-MgN₂O₄ octahedral geometry arising from two N,O-bidentate quinaldine ligands and two water molecules. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular O-HO hydrogen bonds.
