Description
Summary:In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Co(C7H6N2)2(H2O)4]Cl2, the CoII cation lies on an inversion center and is coordinated by two 2-aminobenzonitrile ligands and four water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. The Cl− counter-anion links with the complex cations via O—H...Cl and N—H...Cl hydrogen bonding. Intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bonding links the complex cations, forming supramolecular chains running along the b axis.
