Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal properties of poly[bis-[μ₂-3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine]-bis-(thio-cyanato)-cobalt(II)].

ABSTRACT: The reaction of Co(NCS)₂ with 3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine as coligand leads to the formation of crystals of the title compound, [Co(NCS)₂(C₆H₈N₂)₂] _n , that were characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. In the crystal structure, the Co^II cations are octa-hedrally coordinated by two terminal N-bonded thio-cyanate anions as well as two pyridine and two amino N atoms of four symmetry-equivalent 3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine coligands with all pairs of equivalent atoms in a trans position. The Co^II cations are linked by the 3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine coligands into layers parallel to the ac plane. These layers are further linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯S hydrogen bonding into
