A Phenoxo-Bridged Digallium(III) Complex with a Ligand Derived from 2,6-Bis{[N,N'-bis(carboxymethyl)amino]methyl}-4-methylphenol

The title complex, triaqua-1κ²O,2κO-hydroxo-2κO-μ-{N,N′-(2-hydroxylato-5-methyl-m-phenylenedimethylene-κ²O:O)bis[N-(carboxylatomethyl-κO)glycinato-κ²N,O](5-)}- digallium(III) 5.5-hydrate, [Ga₂(OH)(C₁₇H₁₇N₂O₉)(H₂O)₃].5.5H₂O, contains two octahedrally coordinated Ga^III atoms. A hydroxyl group in the coordination sphere of one Ga atom corresponds to a water molecule in the second. The hydrogen-bond network includes an intramolecular hydrogen bond.
