The coordination compound of {[Sr(CHZ)(2)(H2O)](.)(NTO)(2)(.)3.5H(2)O}(n) was prepared by mixing carbohydrazide aqueous solution and strontium salt solution which was obtained through the reaction of strontium carbonate and 3-nitro-1, 2, 4-triazolo-5-one (NTO). The compound was characterized by using elemental analysis and FT-IR. The crystal structure of {[Sr(CHZ)(2)(H2O)](.)(NTO)(2)(.)3.5H(2)O}(n) (C6H23SrN16O12.5, M-r = 607.02) was determined by using single-crystal diffraction. The crystal is of monoclinic, space group C2/c with the unit cell parameters: a = 24.587(5), b = 12.689(2), c = 16.481(4) Angstrom, beta = 121.15(1)degrees, V = 4400.4(2) Angstrom(3), Z = 8, D-c = 1.833 g/cm(3), mu = 0.255 cm(-1), F(000) = 2472, R = 0.0989 and wR = 0.0750.
