trans-Diaquabis(2-quinolinecarboxylato-N,O)iron(II)-Ethanol-Water (1/2/2)

The title compound, [Fe(C₁₀H₆NO₂)₂(H₂O)₂].2C₂H₆O.2H₂O, contains an Fe^II ion in a six-coordinate environment. The Fe^II ion lies on an inversion centre and displays distorted octahedral geometry with two 2-quinolinecarboxylate and two water ligands in a necessarily trans configuration. Complex molecules and uncoordinated water and ethanol molecules are linked together by a hydrogen-bonding network.
