Crystal structures of tetra-kis-(pyridine-4-thio-amide-κN)bis-(thio-cyanato-κN)cobalt(II) monohydrate and bis-(pyridine-4-thio-amide-κN)bis-(thio-cyanato-κN)zinc(II).

ABSTRACT: Reaction of Co(NCS)₂ and Zn(NCS)₂ with 4-pyridine-thio-amide led to the formation of compounds with composition [Co(NCS)₂(C₆H₆N₂S)₄]·H₂O (1) and [Zn(NCS)₂(C₆H₆N₂S)₂] (2), respectively. The asymmetric unit of compound 1, consists of one cobalt(II) cation, two thio-cyanate anions, four 4-pyridine-thio-amide ligands and one water mol-ecule whereas that of compound 2 comprises one zinc(II) cation that is located on a twofold rotation axis as well as one thio-cyanate anion and one 4-pyridine-thio-amide ligand in general positions. In the structure of compound 1, the cobalt(II) cations are octa-hedrally coordinated by tw
