Hexakis(dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)cobalt(III) trinitrate.

The metal atom of the title salt, [Co(C(2)H(6)OS)(6)](NO(3))(3), is coordinated by six dimethyl sulfoxide mol-ecules in an octa-hedral geometry. The metal atom lies on a special position of site symmetry. One of the nitrate ions lies on a special position of 3 site symmetry and the other independent ion is disordered about a special position of site symmetry.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
