Description
Summary:The CoII atom in the title compound, [Co(C8H5NO4)(C12H8N2)(H2O)3]·3H2O, is six-coordinated in a CoN3O3 octahedral geometry; the water-coordinated CoII atom is chelated by the N-heterocycle. An intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond occurs. The carboxylate entity coordinates through the amino group. The carboxylate donor unit, coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules interact through O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating a tightly-held three-dimensional cage-like network.
