Abstract
In the structure of the title compound, [CoCl2(C9H16N2Si)2], the CoII atom is located on an inversion center in a slightly distorted tetrahedral environment formed by two chloride ions and the pyridine N atoms of two chelating 6-methyl-2-[(trimethylsilyl)amino]pyridine ligands. The dihedral angle between the planes of the pyridine rings is 80.06 (5)°. Cohesion within the crystal structure is accomplished by N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.
Highlights
In the structure of the title compound, [CoCl2(C9H16N2Si)2], the CoII atom is located on an inversion center in a slightly distorted tetrahedral environment formed by two chloride ions and the pyridine N atoms of two chelating 6-methyl-2[(trimethylsilyl)amino]pyridine ligands
R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger
Summary
