Bis[bis(2,2′-bipyridine-k2N,N′)(nitrato-k 2O,O′)-cobalt(II)] molybdate heptahydrate

Abstract:

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Co(NO<inf>3</inf>)(bipy) <inf>2</inf>]<inf>2</inf>[MoO<inf>4</inf>]·7H<inf>2</inf>O (bipy is 2,2′-bipyridine, C<inf>10</inf>H<inf>8</inf>N<inf>2</inf>), contains the isomers A and A of the cation [Co(NO<inf>3</inf>)-(bipy)<inf>2</inf>] ⁺, self-assembled through complementary π-π, C-H⋯π and C-H⋯O interactions, leading to an intricate two-dimensional array. The final three-dimensional network is sustained via extensive hydrogen bonding among the cations, uncoordinated water molecules and molybdate anions, which are accommodated in between adjacent cationic two-dimensional arrays. In the cations, the metal centres adopt a distorted octahedral geometry due to the coordination of the N atoms of two bipy molecules and one bidentate nitrate ligand. © 2004 International Union of Crystallography Printed in Great Britain - all rights reserved.
