In the title compound, [Zn(C6H5N2O2)2(H2O)]·3H2O, the ZnII centre is five-coordinated by two O,N-bidentate Schiff base ligands and one O atom from a water molecule in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry. In the crystal, the complex and uncoordinated water molecules are linked by O-H
O, O-H
N and C-H
O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
