Abstract: The Co^II atom in the title monomeric Schiff base complex, [CoCl₂(C₂₁H₂₂N₂)], is bonded to two Cl atoms and to two N atoms of the Schiff base ligand N,N'-bis[(E)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-ylidene]propane-1,3-diamine in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The molecule has an idealised mirror symmetry, but is not located on a crystallographic mirror plane.
