Bis[-4-(4-carboxyphenoxy)phthalato]bis[triaquacobalt(II)]

L. Wang

Abstract: The dinuclear title complex, [Co₂(C₁₅H₈O₇)₂(H₂O)₆], lies across an inversion center. The unique Co^II ion is coordinated in a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry by two O atoms from a chelating 4-(carboxyphenoxy)phthalate ligand, three water O atoms and a further O atom from a bridging carboxylate group of a symmetry-related 4-(carboxyphenoxy)phthalate ligand. In the crystal, O-HO hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional network.
