In the structure of the title salt, 2C(3)H(5)N(2) (+)·C(6)H(8)O(8) (2-)·2H(2)O, the galacta-rate dianions have crystallographic inversion symmetry and together with the water mol-ecules of solvation form hydrogen-bonded sheet substructures which extend along (110). The imidazolium cations link these sheets peripherally down c through carboxyl-ate O-H-N and N'-H⋯O(hy-droxy) bridges, giving a three-dimensional framework structure. ...[more]
