Abstract

A cobalt hydroxide backbone with a structure reminiscent of that found in cobalt(II) hydroxide forms the basis of the framework of the title compound. The squarate ligands of this coordination solid link the metal hydroxide strips together and form the walls of channels with a diameter of approximately 7 Å.
