title: Diazido-bis-(5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridyl-κN,N')cobalt(II) monohydrate.
abstract: In the title compound, [Co(C(12)H(12)N(2))(2)(N(3))(2)]·H(2)O, the Co(II) ion is situated on a crystallographic twofold axis and adopts a distorted octa-hedral geometry with the two dmbpy (dmbpy = 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyrid-yl) and the two azido ligands in a cis arrangement. The solvent water mol-ecule and one methyl group of the dmbpy ligand are disordered over two sets of sites in a 1:1 ratio. The crystal structure is stabilized by intra-molecular C-H⋯N(dmbpy) and inter-molecular O-H⋯N(azide) hydrogen bonds.
