Structure of a linear unsymmetrical trinuclear cobalt(II) complex with a localized COII–COII bond: dichlorotetrakis[µ3-bis(2-pyridyl)amido]tricobalt(II)
Abstract
The synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of a linear unsymmetrical trinuclear cobalt(II) complex with a syn–syn bis(2-pyridyl)amido ligand, possessing a short, localized CoII–CoII bond and a spin crossover square-pyramidal CoII ion, is described.
