Abstract

The synthesis and crystal structure of the mononuclear title compound, [Co(C2O4)(C10HgN2) 2]·5H2O, is reported. The Co atom is six-coordinated by two O atoms of a bidentate oxalate group and by four N atoms of two bipyridine ligands. The neutral [Co(C2O4)(C 10H8N2)2] entities are connected by π-π stacking interactions of the aromatic systems into a two-dimensional layer, interconnected through a ladder-like hydrogen-bonding pattern of solvate water molecules.
