Chlorido-bis-(ethane-1,2-di-amine)(4-fluoro-aniline)cobalt(III) dichloride monohydrate

摘要

The hydrated title salt, [CoCl(C 6 H 6 FN)(C 2 H 8 N 2 ) 2 ]Cl 2 ·H 2 O, comprises of one chlorido-bis-(ethane-1,2-di-amine)(4-fluoro-aniline)cobalt(III) cation, two chloride counter-anions and a water mol-ecule of crystallization. The Co III ion has a distorted octa-hedral environment and is surrounded by four N atoms in the equatorial plane, with a fifth N atom and one Cl ? ligand occupying the axial positions. One of the methyl-ene C groups in one of the ethane-1,2-di-amine ligands is disordered over two set of sites in a 0.832?(10):0.168?(10) ratio. In the crystal, the complex cation, the two counter-anions and the water mol-ecule of crystallization are linked via N—H?Cl, O—H?Cl and C—H?Cl hydrogen bonds, generating rings with R 4 2 (8), R 2 1 (6), R 4 2 (10) and R 2 2 (6) graph-set motifs within a three-dimensional network.
