In the title complex, [Ca(C10H6NO4)2(H2O)2]n, the CaII atom lies on a twofold rotation axis and adopts a dodecahedral geometry. The CaII atom is octacoordinated by two O atoms from two water molecules and six O atoms from four acetate ligands. Each acetate acts as a tridentate ligand bridging two CaII atoms, resulting in a chain running along the c axis. O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds connect the chains into a two-dimensional network parallel to [011]. [pi]-[pi] interactions between adjacent isoindoline-1,3-dione rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.4096 (11) Å] further consolidate the structure. One of the carboxylate O atoms is disordered over two sites in a 0.879 (12):0.121 (12) ratio.
