Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Co(C(12)H(9)O(2))(2)(C(4)H(6)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], the Co(II) ion is located on an inversion centre and displays a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry. Two O atoms from two water mol-ecules and two carboxyl-ate O atoms from two 2-(naphthalen-1-yl)acetate ligands are in the equatorial plane and two N atoms from two 1-methyl-1H-imidazole ligands are in the axial positions. The structure is stabilized by intra-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonds. Inter-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonds link the complex mol-ecules into chains along [100].
