Bis­(acesulfamato)­tetra­aqua­cobalt(II)

The crystal structure of the first acesulfame–metal complex, namely tetra­aqua­bis­6‐methyl‐1,2,3‐oxa­thia­zin‐4(3H)‐onato 2,2‐dioxide‐κN]­cobalt(II), Co(C₄H₄NO₄S)₂(H₂O)₄], is re­ported. The Co^II ion resides on a twofold axis and is coordinated by four aqua ligands defining the basal plane and by two monodentate acesulfamate ligands, via their ring N atoms, in the axial positions. Two intra‐ and three intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions stabilize the crystal structure and form an infinite three‐dimensional lattice.
