The Crystal and Molecular Structure of Potassium u-fac-Bis(N-methyliminodiacetato)cobaltate(III) Sesquihydrate

Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of the title complex has been determined by X-ray analysis. It has been found that the cis-N2O4 octahedron about the cobalt(III) has a large distortion caused by the steric compression between the two adjacent N-methyl groups.
