Description
Summary:The Co(III) atom in the title complex, [CoCl(2)(C(40)H(48)N(4))]ClO(4), is octahedrally coordinated within a trans-Cl(2)N(4) donor set provided by the tetradentate macrocylic ligand and two chloride ions. The N-H atoms, which are orientated to one side of the N(4) plane, form hydrogen bonds with chloride ions and perchlorate-O atoms. These along with C-H center dot center dot center dot O interactions consolidate the three-dimensional crystal structure. One of the benzene rings was disordered. This was resolved over two positions with the major component of the disorder having a site-occupancy factor of 0.672 (4).
