Abstract: In the title compound, [Pb(C₇H₄FO₂)₂(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂]·2H₂O, the Pb^II atom is coordinated by four N atoms from two bidentate chelating 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligands and four O atoms from two 2-fluorobenzoate ligands in an irregular polyhedral coordination geometry. Two carboxylate O atoms and one F atom are each disordered over two sites with occupancy factors of 0.60 and 0.40. The dihedral angle between the two phen ligands is 89.9 (1)°. The mean interplanar distances are alternatively of 3.44 (3) and 3.45 (3) Å, indicating - stacking interactions between the neighboring phen ligands. In the crystal, O-HO, O-HF and C-HO hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and uncoordinated water molecules into a supramolecular network.
