1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)piperazine-1,4-diium tetrachloridocobalt(II) monohydrate

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title inorganic-organic hybrid compound, (C10H16N2O)[CoCl4]-H2O, consists of a tetrahedral [CoCl4]2- anion, together with a [C10H18N2O]2+ cation and a water molecule. Crystal cohesion is achieved through N - HCl, O - HCl and N - HO hydrogen bonds between organic cations, inorganic anions and the water molecules, building up a three-dimensional network. © Mghandef and Boughzala 2014.
