In the title compound, [Co(C8H5N5O3)(C12H8N2)(H2O)]·3H2O, a tridentate 2-amino-7-methyl-4-oxidopteridine-6-carboxylate ligand, a bidentate ancillary 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand and a water molecule complete a distorted octahedral geometry around the CoII atom. The pterin ligand forms two chelate rings. The phen and pterin ring systems are nearly perpendicular [dihedral angle = 85.15 (8)°]. N—HO, O—HN and O—HO hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and lattice water molecules into a layer parallel to (001). π–π stacking contacts (involving phen–phen and pteridine–pteridine) are also observed [centroid–centroid distances = 3.670 (2), 3.547 (2), 3.698 (2) and 3.349 (2) Å].

The NiII atom in the title complex, [Ni(C8H5N5O3)(C2H8N2)(H2O)]·2H2O, is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry by a tridentate 2-amino-7-methyl-4-oxidopteridine-6-carboxylate (pterin) ligand, a bidentate ancillary ethane-1,2-diamine (en) ligand and a water molecule. The pterin ligand forms two chelate rings. The en and pterin ligands are arranged nearly orthogonally [dihedral angle between the mean plane of the en molecule and the pterin ring = 77.1 (1)°]. N—HO, O—HN and O—HO hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and lattice water molecules into a three-dimensional network. π–π interactions are observed between the pyrazine and pyrimidine rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.437 (2) Å].

In the title complex, [Ni(C8H5N5O3)(C2H8N2)(C3N2H4)]·2H2O, a tridentate 2-amino-7-methyl-4-oxidopteridine-6-carboxylate (pterin) ligand, a bidentate ancillary ethane-1,2-diamine (en) ligand and a monodentate 1H-imidazole (im) ligand complete a distorted octahedral geometry around the NiII atom. The pterin ligand forms two chelate rings. Both the en and im ligands are arranged nearly orthogonally relative to the pterin ligand [dihedral angles between the mean planes of the en and pterin ligands and of the im and pterin ligands are 84.62 (9) and 85.14 (9)°, respectively]. N—HN, N—HO, O—HN and O—HO hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and lattice water molecules into a three-dimensional network.
