Tris(2-{[2-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)eth­yl]imino­meth­yl}phenolato-κ(2) N,O (1))cobalt(III)

In the title compound, [Co(C(16)H(16)NO(2))(3)], the Co(III) atom is six-coordinated in an irregular octa­hedral geometry by three N,O-chelating 2-{[2-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)eth­yl]imino­meth­yl}phenolate groups. One of the three meth­oxy group is disordered over two sets of sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.768 (5):0.232 (5). The crystal packing can be described by alternating zigzag layers of organic ligands and CoN(3)O(3) octa­hedra along the c axis. There are no classical hydrogen bonds in the structure, but C—H⋯π inter­actions occur.
