title: Bis{2,4-dibromo-6-[(E)-(4-fluoro-benz-yl)imino-meth-yl]phenolato-κ(2)N,O}cobalt(II).
abstract: The complete mol-ecule of the title complex, [Co(C(14)H(9)Br(2)FNO)(2)], is generated by crystallographic twofold symmetry, with the Co(II) atom lying on the rotation axis. The coordination of the metal atom by the two N,O-bidentate ligands results in a squashed CoN(2)O(2) tetra-hedron. The six-membered chelate ring is an envelope, with the metal atom as the flap. The dihedral angle between the planes of the aromatic rings within each ligand is 84.1 (6)°.
