[(-)-(1S,2S)-N,N'-Bis(2-oxidobenzyl-idene)-1,2-diphenyl-ethane-1,2-diamine]-bis-(pyridine)cobalt(III) perchlorate methanol hemisolvate hemihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Co(C(28)H(22)N(2)O(2))(C(5)H(5)N)(2)]ClO(4)·0.5CH(4)O·0.5H(2)O, each Co(III) ion is coordinated by the tetra-dentate N,N'-bis-(2-oxidobenzyl-idene)-1,2-diphenyl-ethane-1,2-diamine ligand [Co-N = 1.900 (3) and 1.903 (3) Å; Co-O = 1.885 (3) and 1.891 (3) Å] and two pyridine ligands [Co-N = 1.967 (4) and 1.977 (3) Å] in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The packing of the cations and anions forms voids of 258 Å(3), which are filled by methanol and solvent water mol-ecules with half occupancies. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between solvent molecules, perchlorate anions and water molecules, and between water molecules and O atoms of the ligand, help to consolidate the crystal packing.
