(Carbonato-κ2 O,O′)bis­(1,10-phenan­throline-κ2 N,N′)cobalt(III) nitrate monohydrate

Abstract

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Co(CO3)(C12H8N2)2]NO3·H2O, consists of CoIII complex cations, nitrate anions and uncoordinated water mol­ecules. The CoIII cation is chelated by a carbonate anion and two phenanthroline ligands in a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry. A three-dimensional supra­molecular structure is formed by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding, C—H⋯π and aromatic π–π stacking [centroid–centroid distance = 3.995 (1)Å] inter­actions
