Hexakis(1H‐imidazole‐κN3)­cobalt(II) dichloride tetrahydrate

In the title compound, [Co(C3H4N2)6]Cl2·4H2O, the CoII atom is situated on an inversion center. It is coordinated by six N atoms of six imidazole ligands and has a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. In the crystal structure, the Cl atoms, the water mol­ecules of crystallization and the imidazol...

Summary:In the title compound, [Co(C3H4N2)6]Cl2·4H2O, the CoII atom is situated on an inversion center. It is coordinated by six N atoms of six imidazole ligands and has a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. In the crystal structure, the Cl atoms, the water mol­ecules of crystallization and the imidazole NH groups contribute to the formation of a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network.
