In the title compound, [CoFe2(C5H5)2(C9H5F3O2)2(H2O)2], the central Co atom has an octahedral coordination geometry defined by two chelating trifluoromethyl-β-diketone ferrocene ligands and two aqua ligands, with the latter in a cis disposition. The Cp rings in both ferrocene groupings are close to eclipsed. In the crystal, O—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into [100] chains.
