In the title compound, [Co(C14H8N2O6)(H2O)4]n, each 5,5′-diazenediylbis(2-hydroxybenzoato) ligand acts as a dicarboxylate bridge, leading to the formation of polymeric chains running in the [10] direction. The Co atom is hexacoordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry by six O atoms [Co—O = 2.039 (4)–2.115 (4) Å] from two ligands and four water molecules. Intermolecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds build up a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.

All H atoms attached to C atoms and O(hydroxyl) atom were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.93 Å and O—H = 0.86 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). H atoms of water molecule were located in difference Fourier maps and included in the subsequent
using restraints (O—H = 0.82 (1) Å and H···H = 1.34 (2) Å) with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). In the last stage of the H atoms were treated as riding on their parent O atoms.The crystal used was twinned with two domains in the ratio 0.076/0.924. The

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Olsalazine - 3,3-azobis(6-hydroxybenzoic acid) - has been widely used to prevent and treat the inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis (Klotz, 2005). In previous work, we have synthesized a serial of Zn (Tang, Tan, Chen & Cao, 2007), Cd and Co (Tang, Yang et al., 2007) complexes with phenanthroline as auxiliary ligand. Also we have reported a Mn complex of olsalazine(Tang, Tan & Cao, 2007), however the cobalt complex with single olsalazine as building block have not been reported yet, Here we reported the crystal structure of the title compound, (I)- a new cobalt complex of olsalazine.
In (I), the Co atom is hexacoordinated (Fig. 1) by two O atoms from two L ligands (H2L=3,3-azo-bis(6-hydroxybenzoic acid)) cis to each other and four water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. Each ligand L acts as a carboxylate bridge, that leads to the formation of polymeric chain running in the [-110] direction. Intermolecular O—H···O and O—H···N hydrogen bonds build up a three dimensional supramolecular structure (Table 1).
