Deskripsi

The title compound, [Co(H2O)6](C16H12O6)·H2O, is composed of one 4,4′-(1,2-dihydroxyethane-1,2-diyl)dibenzoate anion lying on an inversion center, one [Co(H2O)6]2+ dicationic complex and a solvent water molecule located on mirror planes. In the crystal, a chain is constructed via O—H...O hydrogen bonds involving the carboxylate and hydroxyl groups of the organic anion; the chains are further connected into a three-dimensional framework by additional O—H...O hydrogen bonds between the [Co(H2O)6]2+ cations, solvent water molecules and the anions.
