Abstract

(CoN4H9OCl)2(H2)3(NH2NO)2(HCl)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four hydrazino alcohol molecules, four hydrochloric acid molecules, eight hydrogen molecules, and four CoN4H9OCl clusters. In each CoN4H9OCl cluster, Co3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three N2-, two H1+, and one O2- atom. There are a spread of Co–N bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.11 Å. There is one shorter (1.92 Å) and one longer (1.97 Å) Co–H bond length. The Co–O bond length is 2.03 Å. There are four inequivalent N2- sites. In the first N2- site, N2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one N2- and two H1+ atoms. The N–N bond length is 1.34 Å. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.02 Å) N–H bond length. In the second N2- site, N2- is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to one Co3+ and one N2- atom. The N–N bond length is 1.25 Å. In the third N2- site, N2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Co3+ and three H1+ atoms. There is two shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.03 Å) N–H bond length. In the fourth N2- site, N2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Co3+ and two N2- atoms. There are nine inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N2- atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N2- atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N2- atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N2- atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Co3+ and one H1+ atom. The H–H bond length is 0.78 Å. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N2- atom. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the eighth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Co3+ and one H1+ atom. In the ninth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- and one Cl1- atom. The H–O bond length is 1.02 Å. The H–Cl bond length is 1.98 Å. O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Co3+ and two H1+ atoms. Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one H1+ atom.
