Tetraaquabis[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl-κN3)benzoato]cobalt(II)

In the title compound, [Co(C10H7N2O2)2(H2O)4], the CoII atom lies on an inversion centre and displays a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The coordination sphere is defined by two mutually trans N atoms from two 4-(imidazol-1-yl)benzoate ligands and the O atoms from four water molecules. The c...

Description
Summary:In the title compound, [Co(C10H7N2O2)2(H2O)4], the CoII atom lies on an inversion centre and displays a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The coordination sphere is defined by two mutually trans N atoms from two 4-(imidazol-1-yl)benzoate ligands and the O atoms from four water molecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by O—H...O hydrogen bonds.
