Summary
Cobalt(III) and chromium(III) complexes of thiosemicarbazide (Htsc) were prepared and the structure of [Co(Htsc)3]Cl3·3H2O was determined by X-ray crystallography. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full matrix least squares to R = 0.035 for 2266 observed reflections. The metal has octahedral geometry with a cis arrangement of Htsc ligands. The [Co(Htsc)3]3+ cations within the unit cell are strongly hydrogen bonded through H2O molecules with the hydrogen bonding nitrogen-oxygen distances between 2.807–2.937 Å.
