Diaquabis(3-nitrobenzoato-κO1)bis[1H-5-(3-pyridyl)-3-(4-pyridyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-κN5]cobalt(II) dihydrate

Abstract

In the centrosymmetric title compound, [Co(C7H4NO4)2(C12H9N5)2(H2O)2]·2H2O, the CoII atom, located on an inversion center, is coordinated by two N atoms [Co—N = 2.155 (3) Å] and four O atoms [Co—O = 2.099 (2)–2.117 (3) Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. Intermolecular N—H...O, O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonds link the components into a three-dimensional supramolecular framework.
