Figure 4
The steric circumstances of the nitro group in (I). Only parts of the complex are shown for clarity. The nitro group may be replaced with the Cl ligand due to the orientational disorder. There is a crystallographic twofold axis running vertical through the Co1xii and Co1xv atoms, another C8/C9 equivalent moiety which lies below the planes of the nitro groups being omitted for clarity. The N/C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are shown as blue dashed lines. The other O⋯H contacts shorter than 2.9 Å (O4⋯H7Bx = 2.78 Å and O4⋯H8Biv = 2.85 Å) are indicated as green dashed lines, and those of rather long distances (O4⋯H9Biv = 3.11 Å and O4vi⋯H9Aiv = 3.09 Å) are indicated as orange dashed lines.
