Abstract

In the title compound, [Ag2(C14H14N4)2](C14H8N2O4)·2H2O, each of the two unique Ag+ ions is two-coordinated by two N atoms from two different 1,4-bis­[(imidazol-1-yl)meth­yl]benzene ligands in an almost linear fashion [N—Ag—N = 170.34 (10) and 160.25 (10)°]. The 4,4′-diazenediyldibenzoate anions do not coordinate to Ag. O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the crystal structure.
