In the title compound, C18H10O8·4C2H6OS, the mid-point of the triple bond of the main molecule is located on a special position, i.e. about an inversion center. The carboxyl groups are twisted slightly out of the planes of the aromatic rings to which they are attached, making dihedral angles of 24.89 (1) and 7.40 (2)°. The cystal packing features strong O—HO hydrogen bonds, weaker C—HO interactions and OS contacts [3.0981 (11) Å] and displays channel-like voids extending along the a-axis direction which contain the dimethyl sulfoxide solvent molecules.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, 2C18H12O4·C2H6OS·2H2O, consists of four crystallographically independent molecules of 5-(naphthalen-1-yl)isophthalic acid, two dimethyl sulfoxide and four water molecules. The dihedral angles formed by the the planes of the aromatic fragments of the organic molecules range from 57.4 (1) to 59.1 (1)°. In the crystal, multiple O—HO hydrogen bonds link the water molecules with the carbonyl and sulfoxide groups, giving rise to double ribbons along the b-axis direction.
