The mononuclear cobalt(II) complex CoII(DMBDIZ)2(NCS)2, where DMBDIZ is 2,6-dimethylbenzo[1,2-d:4,5-d′]diimidazole
摘要:
In the title mononuclear cobalt complex, bis(2,6-dimethyl-1H,7H-benzo[1,2-d:4,5-d']diimidazole-kappaN(3))bis(thiocyanato-kappaN)cobalt(II), [Co-II (NCS)(2) (DMBDIZ)(2)] or [Co(NCS)(2) (C10H10N4)(2)], the cobalt(II) ion is coordinated to four N atoms, from two thiocyanate anions and two DMBDIZ ligands, in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the DMBDIZ ligand, the two imine N atoms are positioned cis with respect to one another. The crystal packing of the complex is dominated by both hydrogen bonding, involving two N-H...N and two N-H...S interactions, and aromatic pi-pi stacking.
