Bis(1,10-phenanthroline-κ(2) N,N')(sulfato-κ(2) O,O')cobalt(II) propane-1,2-diol monosolvate.

ABSTRACT

In the title compound, [Co(SO4)(C12H8N2)2]·C3H8O2, the Co(II) atom (site symmetry 2) has a distorted octa-hedral coordination composed of four N atoms from two chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and two O atoms from an O,O'-bidentate sulfate ligand, in which the S atom has site symmetry 2. The dihedral angle between the two chelating N2C2 groups is 84.46 (15)°. The complex and solvent mol-ecules are connected through O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The solvent mol-ecule is equally disordered over two positions and is also located on a twofold axis.
