Abstract: The Co^II atom in the title compound, [Co(C₈H₅O₃)₂(H₂O)₄]·4H₂O, which exists in an all-trans octahedral coordination geometry, lies on a center of inversion. The coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules engage in extensive hydrogen-bonding interactions, forming a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network.
