Bis-[N,N-bis-(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)cyclo-hexa-namine-κ2 P,P']di-chlorido-cobalt(III) tris-(μ-di-phenyl-phos-phinato-κ2 O:O')bis-[chloridocobaltate(II)]-di-chloro-methane-diethyl ether (1/1.189/0.811).

The DCM-Et2O solvated title compound, [CoCl2(C30H31NP2)2][Co2(C12H10O2P)3Cl2]·1.189CH2Cl2·0.811C4H10O or [CoCl2{Ph2PN(C6H11)PPh2}2][Co2{Ph2PO2}3Cl2]·1.189DCM·0.811Et2O, is a combination of a cationic CoIII-amino-diphosphine and a dimetallic CoII-di-phenyl-phospho-nate anionic species. The asymmetric unit features one half of the cationic and anionic species with solvent mol-ecules in the outer coordination sphere. The metal centre of the cation is located on an inversion center, while the anion is disordered around an inversion center. The cyclo-hexa-nyl moiety of the amino-diphosphine ligand exhibits two-component rotational disorder along the N-C bond, the moiety's major component occupancy refined to 71.1 (7)%. The di-chloro-methane and diethyl ether solvate mol-ecules are disordered with each other and were modelled with 59.4 (3)% and 40.6 (3)% site occupancies in the asymmetric unit, respectively. Inter-molecular C-H⋯π hydrogen-bonding patterns form infinite supra-molecular sheets extending parallel to (110). C-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds were also found in the crystal packing of the title compound.
