Abstract
Delocalization of the imidazole electron density is observed in both s tructures. In the dichlorocobalt complex structure, the two crystallog raphically independent mercaptobenzimidazole molecules are attached to gether through the direct bonding of the Co(II) ion with two S atoms. The cohesion of the molecules in the crystals is due to intermolecular N-H ... S, and; intra arid intermolecular N-H ... Cl hydrogen bonds, respectively.
