Description

A four-coordinated complex, L2Co(NCO)2, (L = 1-methylbenzimidazole) has been synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal is monoclinic, a = 14.522(2) Å, b = 14.610(2) Å, c = 8.6850(13) Å, β = 92.037(3)°, Z = 4, sp. gr. P21/c. Bond lengths Co–N(L) are equal to 2.0165(16) and 2.0174(15) Å, Co–O(NCO) are 1.944(2) and 1.945(2) Å. Intermolecular C–H···O, C–H···N, and C–H···π interactions link the molecules into three-dimensional networks in the crystal.
