Abstract

Solid CoCl2 dissolves in a toluene solution of (OxS)2 Ca·2HMPA to give [(OxS)Ca·4HMPA]+·[(OxS) Co·μ-(OxS)3·CoCl]-, 1, the anion structure consists of two Co2+ centres linked by three symmetrically bridging OxS- ligands such that one Co2+ (bonded through S to a terminal OxS-) has a tetrahedral coordination sphere of four S atoms whilst the other (bonded to a terminal Cl-) has a tetrahedral coordination sphere of three N and one Cl atoms.
