The reaction of cobalt(II) nitrate with bis(pyridin-3-ylmethyl)sulfane ligand, afforded a one-dimensional looped polymeric chain. The CoII cation displays a distorted octahedral geometry coordinated by four pyridine N atoms from four individual ligands and two O atoms from two monodentate nitrate anions. Two symmetry-related ligands are connected by two symmetry-related CoII cations, forming a 20-membered cyclic dimer. These cyclic dimers are connected to each other by sharing CoII atoms, forming a looped chain. In the crystal, adjacent looped chains are connected by intermolecular π–π stacking interactions and C—H⋯π and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in the formation of a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture.
