In the title complex, [Co(NCS)2(C13H19N3O)(H2O)], the CoII ion is six-coordinated by the N,N′,N′′-tridentate Schiff base, the N atoms of two thiocyanate ligands and one water molecule in a distorted octahedral geometry. Intramolecular C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H⋯O, O—H⋯S, C—H⋯S and S⋯S [3.5546 (18) Å] interactions result in an infinite three-dimensional network.

A mixture of 2-acetylpyridine (0.20 g, 1.65 mmol) and 4-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine (0.21 g, 1.65 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml) was refluxed for 2 hr followed by addition of a solution of cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate (0.41 g, 1.65 mmol) and sodium thiocyanete (0.134 g, 1.65 mmol) in a minimum amount of water. The resulting solution was refluxed for 30 min, then left at room temperature. The crystals of the title complex were obtained in a few days.
The C-bound H atoms were placed at calculated positions (C–H 0.95–0.99 Å) and were treated as riding on their parent C atoms. The O-bound H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map, and refined with a distance restraint of O–H 0.84±0.02. For all H atoms, Uiso(H) was set to 1.2–1.5 Ueq(carrier atom). An additional rigid-bond type restraint (DELU in SHELXL97) was placed on the displacement parameters of S2 and C15.

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. |

The crystal structure of the title CoII complex is isostructural with the previously reported NiII complex (Suleiman Gwaram et al., 2011). The Schiff base, prepared in situ, acts as an N,N',N''-tridentate ligand towards the CoII ion to form two five-membered chelate rings with the metal atom. Two cis-located isothiocyanate and one water molecule complete a distorted octahedral geometry around the Co(II) center. A similar arrangement was observed in a related CoII complex (Sun et al., 2007). The molecular structure contains intramolecular C—H···N and C—H···O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, the adjacent molecules are connected via O—H···O, O—H···S, C—H···S hydrogen bonds into infinite layers parallel to the ac plane. The layers are further linked into a three-dimensional polymeric structure through an S···S interaction [3.5546 (18) Å] between S1 and S2 of the symmetry related molecule at –x+1, y - 1/2, -z + 3/2.
