Abstract

The title structure, K(2)[Co(C(11)N(4)O(3))(2)(H(2)O)(4)], is isotypic with K(2)[Fe(C(11)N(4)O(3))(2)(H(2)O)(4)]. The Co(II) atom is in a distorted octa-hedral CoN(2)O(4) geometry, forming a dianionic mononuclear entity. Each dianionic unit is associated with two potassium cations and inter-acts with adjacent units through O-H⋯N and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
