Abstract
In the title compound, [Co(NO3)2(C2H3N)(C12H8N2)], the cobalt(II) centre adopts a seven-coordinate distorted pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry, being coordinated by a bidentate 1,10-phenanthroline, two bidentate nitrate anions and an acetonitrile ligand. The two axial sites are occupied by the acetonitrile ligand and one N-atom donor from the phenanthroline. The major distortions from ideal geometry occur within the equatorial plane, and are due to the narrow bite angle of the bidentate nitrate anions.
