Crystal structure of aqua-tris-(isonicotinamide-κN)bis-(thio-cyanato-κN)cobalt(II) 2.5-hydrate.

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(NCS)₂(C₆H₆N₂O)₃(H₂O)]·2.5H₂O, comprises one Co^II cation, three isonicotinamide ligands, two thio-cyanate anions, one aqua ligand and two water solvent mol-ecules in general positions, as well as one water solvent mol-ecule that is located on a twofold rotation axis. The Co^II cations are octa-hedrally coordinated by two terminally N-bonded thio-cyanate anions, one water mol-ecule and three isonicotinamide ligands, each coordinating via the pyridine N atom. The discrete complexes are linked by inter-molecular O-H⋯O, N-H⋯O and N-H⋯S hydrogen bonding into a three-dimensional network that contains cavities in which the solvent water mol-
