Crystal structure of bis-(pyridine-4-carbo-thio-amide-κN¹)bis-(thio-cyanato-κN)cobalt(II) methanol monosolvate.

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(NCS)₂(C₆H₆NS)₄]·CH₃OH, consists of one cobalt(II) cation, two thio-cyanate anions, four pyridine-4-carbo-thio-amide ligands and one methanol mol-ecule that are located in general positions. The Co^II cations are coordinated by two terminal N-bonding thio-cyanate anions and four N-bonding pyridine-4-carbo-thio-amide ligands, resulting in discrete and slightly distorted octa-hedral complexes. These complexes are linked into a three-dimensional network via inter-molecular N-H⋯S hydrogen bonding between the amino H atoms and the thio-cyanate and pyridine-4-carbo-thio-amide S atoms. From this arrangement, channels are formed in which the methanol solvate mol-ecules are embedded
