Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound, [CoCl2(C14H 32N4)]ClO4, has been determined. The Co-III ion is six-coordinate with a distorted octahedral geometry consisting of the four N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in equatorial positions and the two Cl atoms in ax ial positions. The tetradentate macrocyclic ligand adopts its most sta ble configuration, with two six-membered rings in chair conformations and two five-membered rings in gauche forms.
