In the title complex, [Co(C10H11N2O2)2(C5H5N)2], the CoII atom lies on a centre of symmetry and adopts a distorted cis-CoO2N4 octahedral geometry. The two acetone salicyloylhydrazone ligands are deprotonated and act as N,O-bidentate monoanionic ligands, forming the equatorial plane, while the axial positions are occupied by two N atoms of two pyridine molecules. The complex presents O—H⋯N and C—H⋯N intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Intermolecular C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O interactions are also present in the crystal.

To a stirred 10 ml pyridine solution of acetone salicyloylhydrazone (0.0384 g,0.2 mmol), 10 ml methanol solution of cobalt dichloride (0.0245 g,0.1 mmol) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h at room temperature and then filtered. Brown single crystals were obtained from the filtrate after three weeks. Anal.

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. |

Aroylhydrazone and their metal complexes are of great importance owing to the wide spread applications in the fields of coordination chemistry and their biological activities. As an extension of our work on the structural characterization of aroylhydrazone derivatives (Liu et al., 2005; Kang et al., 2007), the title compound (I) was synthesized.
Fig. 1 shows a molecular view of (I). The complex consists of one Co cation lying on a centre of symmetry [symmetry code: -x, 1 - y, -z], two acetone salicyloyl hydrazone ligands and two coordinated pyridine molecules. The monoanionic ligand (which is in its enol form, (C1—O1: 1.270 (3) Å) acts as bidentate forming the equatorial plane (Co1—O1(2.028 (2) Å and Co1—N2(2.179 (2) Å). Two pyridine molecules coordinate in the axial positions, the axial bond length (Co1—N3 2.233 (2) Å) being slightly longer than those of in the equatorial plane. In addition anumber of intramolecular (conventional) O—H···N and (non conventional) C—H···N, C—H···O H-bonds are found in the complex (Table 1).
