title: Synthesis and Supramolecular Structure of a (5-(3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl)-1H-tetrazole) Cobalt Complex.
abstract: The reaction of CoCl(2).6H(2)O with m-BDTH(2) (1,3-benzeneditetrazol-5-yl) leads to [Co(C(8)H(6)N(8))(2)(H(2)O)(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)]Cl(2) (1). Both tetrazolic groups remain protonated existing in a 1H tautomeric form. A trifurcated chlorine atom and stacking interactions assemble compound 1 into a three-dimensional network.
