The crystal structure of a hydrolyzed product of the cobalt(III) complex with 1-(3,5-dichlorosalicylideneamino)-3-amino-2-propanol (H2dcsalapr) was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method at 90 K. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 9.2242(15)Å, b = 9.3391(16) Å, c = 9.5525(16)Å, α = 75.574(3)°, β = 85.550(3)°, γ = 69.154(3)°, V = 744.7(2)Å3, Dx = 1.634 g/cm3, and Z = 1. The R1 [I > 2σ(I)] and wR2 (all data) values are 0.0489 and 0.1093, respectively, for all 3319 independent reflections. The X-ray structure analysis revealed a centrosymmetric octahedral Co(III) complex with two hydrolyzed Schiff-base ligands, Hdcsalapr−, in a facial mode, one chloride ion, two acetonitrile molecules, and two water molecules in the unit cell, which was formed from the reaction solution of cobalt(II) chloride hexahydrate with 1,3-bis(3,5-dichlorosalicylideneamino)-2-propanol in the presence of triethylamine in acetonitrile.
