catena-(Bis([mu]2-1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane-N,N')-diaqua-cobalt(II)) dinitrate 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane monohydrate

K. J. Nordell, J. D. Hammond and M. D. Smith

Abstract: The hydrothermally prepared title compound, [Co(C26H28N4)(H2O)2]2NO3·C13H14N2·H2O, (I), consists of infinite one-dimensional chains containing two independent Co2+ centers, each octahedrally coordinated by two water molecules and four bridging 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane (bpp) ligands. The chains are linked into infinite two-dimensional layers by hydrogen bonding, via an uncoordinated bpp molecule, and further into a three-dimensional framework via interstitial nitrate anions and water molecules. (I) is isostructural to the Ni analog previously reported [Krishnamohan Sharma et al., (2000). Cryst. Eng. 3, 201-208].
