Bis(μ-3,5-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazol-4-amine-κ2N1:N2)bis[dichloridocobalt(II)]
Abstract
In the centrosymmetric dinuclear compound, [Co2Cl4(C4H8N4)2], the CoII atom is coordinated by N atoms from two 3,5-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazol-4-amine ligands and two Cl atoms in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. A six-membered ring is formed by four N atoms from two ligands and the two CoII centers; the Co...Co distance is 3.756 (9) Å.
