Crystal structure of bis-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) tetra-chlorido-cobaltate(II).


ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C4H7N2)2[CoCl4], consists of two 2-methyl-imidazolium cations and one tetra-hedral [CoCl4](2-) anion. The anions and cations inter-act through N-H?Cl hydrogen bonds to define layers with a stacking direction along [100]. Besides van der Waals forces, weak C-H?Cl inter-actions between these layers stabilize the crystal packing.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C4H7N2)2[CoCl4], consists of two 2-methyl-imidazolium cations and one tetra-hedral [CoCl4](2-) anion. The anions and cations inter-act through N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds to define layers with a stacking direction along [100]. Besides van der Waals forces, weak C-H⋯Cl inter-actions between these layers stabilize the crystal packing. ...[more]
