H.-W. Xu, Z.-N. Chen and J.-G. Wu

Abstract: The reaction between the metal diphosphine [Cu₂(₂-dppm)₂(MeCN)₄](ClO₄)₂ [dppm is bis(diphenylphosphino)methane] and the metal-thiolate component [Co(mpo)₃] (mpo is 2-mercaptopyridine N-oxide) gave the title compound, [Co(C₅H₄NOS)₂(C₂₅H₂₂P₂)]ClO₄·C₄H₁₀O, in which one mpo ligand in [Co(mpo)₃] was displaced by dppm. The Co^III atom is located in a distorted octahedral coordination environment. Two S atoms of two mpo ligands are in trans positions.
