Abstract

In the mononuclear title compound, [Co(III)(C(15)H(12)N(2)O(3))(C(5)H(5)N)(3)]ClO(4), the Co(III) ion is coordinated by three pyridine mol-ecules and one N'-(3-meth-oxy-2-oxidobenzyl-idene)benzohydrazidate Schiff base ligand in an O,N,O'-tridentate manner. The Co(III) ion adopts a distorted CoN(4)O(2) octa-hedral coordination environment.
