title: Acrylato[tris-(1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-ylmeth-yl)amine]cobalt(II) perchlorate-dimethyl-formamide-methanol (2/2/3).
abstract: In the title complex, [Co(C(3)H(3)O(2))(C(27)H(27)N(7))]ClO(4)·C(3)H(7)NO·1.5CH(4)O, the Co(II) ion is five-coordinated by four N atoms from a tris-(1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-ylmeth-yl)amine (mentb) ligand and one O atom from an acrylate ligand in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry with approximate mol-ecular C(3) symmetry. The atoms of the acrylate ligand are disordered over two sites, with approximate occupancies of 0.90 and 0.10. In addition, the solvent hemimethanol mol-ecule is disordered over two positions with equal occupancies. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak intermolecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
