title: Dichloridobis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-amine-κN)cobalt(II).
abstract: In the title compound, [CoCl(2)(C(5)H(9)N(3))(2)], the Co(II) atom adopts a slightly distorted tetra-hedral coordination geometry provided by two chloride anions and two N atoms from the organic ligands. The dihedral angle between the pyrazole rings is 85.91 (10)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by inter-molecular N-H⋯N and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
