Dibromidobis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-κN2)cobalt(II)
Abstract
In the mononuclear title complex, [CoBr2(C5H8N2)2], the CoII atom is coordinated by two N atoms from two monodentate 3,5-dimethylpyrazole ligands and two Br atoms in a highly distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal, the complex molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H...Br hydrogen bonds into chains along [101]. An intramolecular N—H...Br hydrogen bond is also present.
