Notes:
The structure of the title compound, {[Co(C2H8N2)3]Cl3}2·-[Na(H2O)6]Cl, has been redetermined to a higher degree of accuracy. The true space group is shown to be trigonal P3, but the structure is extremely close to hexagonal P63. Both of the independent Λ-[Co(en)3]Cl3 moieties (en is ethylenediamine) and the [Na(H2O)6]Cl unit reside on sites of crystallographic threefold symmetry. The sodium and chloride ions share the same lattice positions and the whole [Na(H2O)6]Cl unit is disordered over two positions in an approximate ratio of 0.73:0.27.
