In the crystal structure of the centrosymmetric title complex, bis-{μ-3-[(2-nitro-phen-yl)imino-meth-yl]-2-oxidobenzoato}dicobalt(II), [Co(2)(C(14)H(8)N(2)O(5))(2)], in which the ligand is 3-[(2-nitro-phen-yl)imino-meth-yl]-2-oxidobenzoate, a Schiff base synthesized from 2-nitro-aniline with 3-carboxyl-salicyl-aldehyde, the two cobalt(II) ions in the mol-ecular unit are bridged by two phenolate O atoms of the ligands. Each metal centre has a distorted square-planar geometry. In the crystal struc ...[more]
