Poly[[cyanatocobalt(II)]bis[-1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene]]

X.-P. Shen and H. Zhou

Abstract: The coordination geometry of the Co^II atom in the title complex, [Co(NCO)₂(C₁₂H₁₂N₆)₂]_n or [Co(NCO)₂(bbtz)₂]_n, where bbtz is 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-methyl)benzene, is distorted octahedral, in which the Co^II atom lies on an inversion centre and is coordinated by four N atoms from the triazole rings of four symmetry-related bbtz ligands and two N atoms from two symmetry-related monodentate NCO^- ligands. The Co^II atoms are bridged by four bbtz ligands to form a two-dimensional (4,4)-network.
