Abstract

The title compound exists as a ID coordination polymer consisting of alternating calcium cations and croconate anions. Three water molecules complete the 7-coordination sphere of Ca in the form of a pentagonal bipyramid and form hydrogen bonds which link the polymeric chains into layers and also interconnect the layers. The structure has a triclinic space group P - 1 with a = 6.642(3)Å, b = 7.793(4)Å, c = 8.854(5) Å, α = 106.97(5), β = 92.43(4), γ = 106.98(4)°, V = 415.1(4) Å3, and Z = 2.
