Crystal structure of cis-tetra-aqua-dichlorido-cobalt(II) sulfolane disolvate.


ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [CoCl2(H2O)4]·2C4H8SO2, the Co(II) cation is located on the twofold rotation axis and is coordinated by four water mol-ecules and two adjacent chloride ligands in a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination environment. The cisoid angles are in the range 83.27?(5)-99.66?(2)°. The three transoid angles deviate significantly from the ideal linear angle. The crystal packing can be described as a linear arrangement of complex units along c formed by bifurcated O-H?Cl hydrogen bonds between two water mol-ecules from one complex unit towards one chloride ligand of the neighbouring complex. Two solvent mol-ecules per complex are attached to this infinite chain via O-H?O hydrogen bonds in which water mol-ecules act as the hydrogen-bond donor and sulfolane O atoms as the hydrogen-bond acceptor sites.
