1-Cyanomethyl-1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane tetrachloridocobaltate(II)

Abstract

In the title salt, (C8H15N3)[CoCl4], the four chloride anions coordinate the CoII ion in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal, N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds link cations and anions into chains running along the c axis. The crystal packing is further stabilized by weak C—H...Cl and C—H...N interactions.
