In the title compound, [CoCl2(C12H12N2)], the CoII atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral geometry by two N atoms from a 6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand and two terminal Cl atoms. Intermolecular C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions between the pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.788 (1) and 3.957 (1) Å] are present in the crystal structure.

For the preparation of the title compound, a solution of 6,6'-dmbipy (0.25 g, 1.34 mmol) in methanol (15 ml) was added to a solution of CoCl2.6H2O (0.37 g, 1.34 mmol) in acetonitrile (15 ml) and the resulting blue solution was stirred for 15 min at 313 K. This solution was left to evaporate slowly at room temperature. After one week, blue block crystals of the title compound were isolated (yield: 0.32 g, 76%).
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 (aromatic) and 0.96 (methyl) Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

6,6'-Dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (6,6'-dmbipy) is a good bidentate ligand, and numerous complexes with 6,6'-dmbipy have been prepared, such as that of zinc (Alizadeh, Kalateh, Ebadi et al., 2009; Alizadeh, Kalateh, Khoshtarkib et al., 2009; Alizadeh, Khoshtarkib et al., 2009), copper (Itoh et al., 2005), nickel (Kou et al., 2008), cadmium (Alizadeh et al., 2010) and ruthenium (Onggo et al., 2005). We report here the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound.
In the title compound (Fig. 1), the CoII atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral geometry by two N atoms from a 6,6'-dmbipy ligand and two terminal Cl atoms. The Co—N and Co—Cl bond lengths and angles (Table 1) are within normal range as observed in [Co(6,6'-dmbpy)Cl2].1/2(C6H6) (Baker et al., 1988) and [Co(dmphen)Cl2] (dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) (Akbarzadeh Torbati et al., 2010) .
In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Table 2) and π–π contacts (Fig. 2) between the pyridine rings, Cg1···Cg2i and Cg1···Cg2ii [symmetry codes: (i) 1-x, 1-y, 1-z; (ii) -x, 1-y, 1-z. Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the N1, C2–C6 ring and N2, C7–C11 ring], stabilize the structure, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.788 (1) and 3.957 (1) Å.
