The title compound, [Pb(2)(C(7)H(5)O(2))(2)(NO(3))(2)(C(12)H(8)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], crystallizes as a dinuclear centrosymmetric dimer containing two Pb(II) atoms bridged by two benzoate ligands. Each Pb(II) atom is seven-coordinated by a water mol-ecule, a nitrate anion, a 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand and two benzoate anions. The crystal packing is stabilized by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and by π-π stacking between neighboring phen ligands, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.557 (3) Å.
