Bis{2-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyliminomethyl]-4,6-disulfanylphenolato}cobalt(II) monohydrate

In the title hydrated complex, [Co(C11H15N2OS2)2]·H2O, the CoII atom (site symmetry 2) is coordinated by two O,N,N′-tridentate Schiff base ligands, resulting in a very distorted cis-CoO2N4 octahedral geometry for the metal ion. In the crystal, the water molecule (O-atom site symmetry 2) interacts with nearby complex molecules by way of bifurcated O—H⋯(O,S) hydrogen bonds.
