The title compound, [Co(C(16)H(23)O(2))(2)(C(3)H(4)N(2))(2)] or (C(3)H(4)N(2))(2)Co(O(2)CC(6)H(2) (i)Pr(3)-2,4,6), is a rare example of a tetra-coordinate cobalt(II) carboxyl-ate stabilized by ancillary N-heterocyclic ligands. The Co(II) ion resides on a crystallographic twofold axis so that the asymmetric unit comprises one half-mol-ecule. Due to the steric bulk of the 2,4,6-triisopropyl-phenyl substituents, the carboxyl-ate ligands are both coordinated in a monodentate fashion despite the low ...[more]
