Abstract: The title compound, [tri(2-sulfidopyridine N-oxide-O,S)cobalt(III)], [Co(C₅H₄NSO)₃], was synthesized and its structure characterized by X-ray crystallographic techniques. Three mpo^- (Hmpo = 2-mercaptopyridine-N-oxide) ligands chelate the Co atom, forming a distorted octahedral O₃S₃ coordination environment around Co. The asymmetric unit contains two molecules of Co(C₅H₄NOS)₃.
