The one‐dimensional polymeric structure of sodium diaquafenamate–water (1/1) was studied by X‐ray diffraction. The sodium cation is coordinated to one oxygen atom of the carboxylate group and to four water oxygen atoms. To characterize the Na—O bonds, the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and noncovalent interaction (NCI) approaches have been used. Both methods confirmed that the Na—O bonds are very weak, comparable with the weak N—H…O intramolecular hydrogen bond. The polymeric structure is stabilized by the interaction of the sodium cation with the surrounding water molecules.
