The barium has eleven coordinations and the coordination polyhedra is a capped antiprism. Six water oxygen atoms are coordinated whereas the other five are coming from the oxalate group. In the unit cell the molecules form a polymeric network. One lattice water molecule belongs to the coordinating water. The barium oxygen distances vary from 2.75 Å to 3.15 Å.
