Description
Summary:In the crystal structure of the polymeric title compound, [Sr(C10H6O6S2)(H2O)(2)](n), the naphthalene-2,7-disulfonate dianion uses one -SO3 unit to bind to two Sr-II cations and the other -SO3 unit to bind to three Sr-II cations; of the two coordinated water molecules, one is monodentate to one SrII cation, whereas the other bridges two Sr-II cations. The mu(5)-bridging mode of the dianon and the mu(2)-bridging mode of the water molecule generate a polymeric three-dimensional network which is consolidated by O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds. The Sr-II cation exists in an undefined eight-coordinate environment.
