title: (2-Aminoethanethiolato-N,S)bis(ethylenediamine-N,N')cobalt(III) dinitrate.
abstract: In the title compound, [Co(C(2)H(6)NS)(C(2)H(8)N(2))(2)](NO(3))(2), the Co(III) atom has a slightly distorted octahedral geometry, coordinated by one 2-aminoethanethiolate and two ethylenediamine ligands. The three five-membered chelate rings adopt a gauche conformation with the unfavoured (lel)(2)(ob) form, which is ascribed to hydrogen bonds between the amine groups in the complex cation and the nitrate counter-anions [N.O 2.900 (3)-3.378 (3) A].
