Abstract
In the centrosymmetric title compound, [Co4Cl4(C3H6S)](4)], the two independent Co-III ions are each coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral geometry by one C, one Cl and two S atoms. The molecules are stabilized by C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl and C-H center dot center dot center dot S hydrogen bonds with R-2(2)(8), R-4(2)(8) and R-2(2)(6) ring motifs generate a polymeric network.
