Abstract

Selected bond lengths (Å) and angles (°) of complexes 1 and 2. Comparison of Co-Nthiazole, Co-Nimine and Co-Sthiolate bond lengths (Å) in octahedral Co(III)-N4S2 complexes with thiosemicarbazone based ligands. Comparison of Co-Npy, Co-Nimine, Co-Nazide and Co-Oenolate bond lengths (Å) in octahedral Co(III)N4O2–Co(III)N2O(N3)3 complexes with hydrazone and azide ligands.Hydrogen-bond parameters for complex 1.Intermolecular p×××p interaction parameters for complex 2. Hydrogen-bond parameters for complex 2.Crystal packing of 1 showing self-assembled complex cations within a layer parallel with the (001) lattice plane by means of intermolecular N–H×××N and N–H×××S hydrogen bonds and (b) Intermolecular p×××p interactions between thiazole rings.Crystal packing of 2 showing 2D assembly parallel with the (10-1) lattice plane generated by intermolecular p×××p interactions and C–H×××N hydrogen bonds.Cartesian coordinates of all DFT optimized structures
