The new hybrid material, (C4H12N2)[Co(H2O)4(SeO4)2]·2H2O, has been synthesized by the slow evaporation method at room temperature and crystallographically characterized. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21 /n. The crystal structure of this compound consists of transition metal, Co(II), octahedrally coordinated by four water molecules and two selenate groups forming the [Co(H2O)4(SeO4)2]2-anions, water molecules and piperazinediium cations (C4H12N2)2+linked together by two types of hydrogen bonds, OW–H…O and N–H…O.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
