Bis(2,3-dimethylanilinium) diaquabis[dihydrogendiphosphato(2−)]cobaltate(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, (C8H12N)2[Co(H2P2O7)2(H2O)2], the Co atom is located on an inversion center and is surrounded by two dihydrogendiphosphate ligands and two water mol­ecules in an octa­hedral coordination. The packing is organized in layers containing the cobaltate anions with organic cations arranged in the inter­layer spaces and connected through hydrogen bonds to the anions.
