Bis(isocyanato-N)bis-(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)cobalt(II)

Abstract

In the title complex, [Co(NCO)2(C12H 8N2)2], the CoII atom, lying on a twofold rotation axis, is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral environment by four N atoms from two chelating phenanthroline ligands and two N atoms from two isocyanate ligands in cis positions.
