The title compound, triaqua(1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylato)magnesium(II) dihydrate, [Mg(PDA)(H2O)3]·2H2O, (H2PDA is 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylic acid, C14H8N2O4) has twofold crystallographic symmetry. The Mg atom is in a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination environment with two N atoms and two O atoms from PDA and one O atom from a water molecule forming the pentagonal plane, and two O atoms from two water molecules occupying axial positions. The crystal structure comprises an infinite two-dimensional network of hydrogen-bonded molecules.
