metal-organic compounds
The title complex, bis[2-(2-propyliminomethyl)phenolato-N,O]cobalt(II), [Co(C10H12NO)2], has two chelating Schiff base ligands coordinating through their N and O atoms to give a tetrahedral geometry distorted mainly by reduction of chelate O-Co-N angles and by expansion of the N-Co-N angle because of steric hindrance of the isopropyl substituents. Co-O bonds [mean 1.906 (5) Å] are shorter than the Co-N bonds [mean 1.992 (8) Å].
