title: A dimeric cobalt(II)-suberate complex with 3-aminopyridine.
abstract: The title complex, mu-octane-1,8-dioato-bis[bis(3-aminopyridine)chloro(methanol)cobalt(II)], [Co2(C8H12O4)Cl2(C5H6N2)4(CH4O)2], is located on a crystallographic centre of inversion. The coordination around each of the Co centres is distorted octahedral, involving two N, three O and one Cl atom. Discrete dimers are connected in a three-dimensional arrangement through N-H...O, N-H...Cl and O-H...O hydrogen-bond interactions.
