Abstract
The crystal structure of the hexagonal H3Co(CN)6 (a = 6.43 Å, c = 5.70 Å, Z = 1) has been determined by X‐ray powder methods. The space group is D (at least pseudo), the cobalt atoms being in (0, 0, 0). Structure factor calculations lead to a final R‐value of 13.2%, based on F2‐sums of coinciding reflections. The carbon and nitrogen atoms are located at the vertices of a slightly distorted octahedron around the cobalt atom; the angle CoCN is 177°. The interatomic distances are: CoC = 1.89 Å, CoN = 2,98 Å, CN = 1.09 Å. The pseudo‐octahedral units of Co(CN)6 are linked together by NHN bridges. Infrared spectra show that the most probable linkage is the one with a NHN‐bond length of 2.7 Å.
