biostudies-literatureUnknown66(Pt 6)Wilseck ZMIn the title compound, [Co(NCS)(2)(C(16)H(16)N(4)O(2))](n), the octa-hedrally coordinated Co(II) ion lies on a crystallographic inversion center, with trans isothio-cyanate ligands. Pyridyl N-donor atoms and formyl O-donor atoms from exotetra-dentate bis-(4-pyridyl-carbon-yl)piperazine (4-bpfp) ligands link the Co(NCS)(2) units into a [Co(NCS)(2)(4-bpfp)](n) coordination polymer layer that is oriented parallel to (101). The layers stack along [010] to construct the pseudo-three-dimensional structure.Acta crystallographica.
