Dichlorido[bis-(2-ethyl-5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl-κN)methane]-cobalt(II) monohydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [CoCl(2)(C(13)H(20)N(4))]·H(2)O, the Co(II) atom lies on a mirror plane and is four-coordinated by two N atoms of the imidazole ligand and two Cl atoms in a distorted tetra-hedral arrangement. The water mol-ecule participates in the formation of hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three dimensional network involving the Cl atoms and the NH groups. The terminal C atom of the ethyl group is disordered over two sites of equal occupancy.
