G. Yang et al., CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE STUDY OF CO(II) COMPLEXES WITH 2,2'-(1,4-ETHYLENEDIOXYL) DIBENZOIC ER-DOT(H2O)(3)](N)CENTER-DOT-NH(2)O-CENTER-DOT-0.2 NH(2)O, Crystal research and technology, 32(4), 1997, pp. 591-596
The structure of the title complex [Co . L .(H2O)(3)](n) . nH(2)O . 0.
2 nH(2)O has been established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Cry
stals of the complex are monoclinic, space group C2/c with cell consta
nts a = 45.29(4), b = 10.631(6): c = 8.015(6) Angstrom, beta = 90.65(8
)degrees, Z = 8, D-c = 1.489 g.cm(-3). The structure was solved and re
filled to R = 0.0478 (wR = 0.0577). In the ions are hexacoordinated by
O atoms in an octahedral arrangement. CoO6 octahedra share corners (b
ridged) through O atoms of water, with each L2--ligand binding two adj
acent Co atoms.
