摘要

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(HCO2)(2)-(C14H12N2)(H2O)]center dot H2O, contains a mononuclear complex molecule hydrogen bonded to a lattice water molecule. The Co-II cation is in a distorted octahedral coordination environment defined by the two N atoms of the 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand and four O atoms. Two of these are from a chelating formate anion, one from a monodentate formate and the last from an aqua ligand. In the crystal, molecules are connected by O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds, forming double chains along [100] with the 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligands pointing outwards from each chain. These chains are further linked into layers parallel to (011) by inter-chain pi-pi stacking interactions with centroid-centroid distances of 3.61 (1) angstrom.
