The ligand N,N'-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetate coordinates to cobalt(III) in a distorted octahedral fashion with trans carboxylato groups. The structure of the cation is in good agreement with those reported for the isomorphous tetrafluoroborate monohydrate [Mandel & Douglas (1989). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 155, 55-69] and the hexafluorophosphate acetonitrile monohydrate [Caravan, Rettig & Orvig (1997). Inorg. Chem. 36, 1306-1315 and 4912].
