In the title compound, [Co(C7H3N2O6)2(H2O)4].4H2O, the coordination polyhedron around the Co atom is a slightly distorted octahedron involving one carboxyl O atom from each 3,5-dinitrobenzoato ligand and the O atoms of four water molecules. The mean Co-Owater distance is 2.052 (2) Å, while the mean Co-Obenzoato distance is significantly longer at 2.102 (11) Å. There are four water molecules of crystallization per asymmetric unit. Intra- as well as intermolecular hydrogen bonds exist in the structure.
