Co(NSF)6I(AsF6) 2, M r = 827.17, mono- clinic, P2~/n, a = 13.105 (9), b'= 9.201 (7), c = 9-366 (6) A, fl = 90.43 (4) ° , U= 1129 A 3, Z = 2, D x = 2.432 Mg m -3, /t = 4.3 mm -~ (Mo Ka). R = 0. 104 for 1296 unique observed reflexions. The Co atom lies at the origin and is octahedrally coordinated. The S-N and S-F distances are much shorter than in free NSF, but the N-S-F angle is not greatly altered. Introduction. The unstable thionitrosyl fluoride, NSF, can be stabilized by its incorporation as a ligand in transition-metal complexes. We report here the struc- ture of the Co lI derivative. A preliminary note has
