Abstract
In the title dinuclear InIII compound, [In2(SO4)3(C12H8N2)2(H2O)2]·2H2O, each InIII cation is coordinated by a 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand, a water molecule and three sulfate O atoms in a distorted InN2O4 octahedral geometry. Three sulfate anions bridge two InIII cations, forming the dinuclear entities. O—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding is observed in the crystal structure. The crystal structure is further consolidated by π–π stacking between nearly parallel phen ring systems [dihedral angle = 4.2 (4)°], the centroid–centroid distance between benzene rings of adjacent phen ligands being 3.528 (9) Å.
