Tetra­aqua­bis­[2-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1,3-benzoxazol-3-yl)acetato]­zinc

The ZnII ion in the title compound, [Zn(C9H6NO4)2(H2O)4], is located on an inversion center and is octa­hedrally coordinated by two 2-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1,3-benzoxazol-3-yl)acetate anions in axial sites and four water mol­ecules in equatorial positions. In the crystal, O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the coordinated water mol­ecules and carbon­yl–carboxyl­ate O atoms lead to pleated sheets parallel to (001)
