A new cobalt complex, bis-[tris-(amino-thio-urea)cobalt(III)] bis-[2-(carb-oxy-methyl)-2-hy-droxy-butane-dioato]cobalt(II) tetra-nitrate tetra-hydrate, [Co(CH5N3S)3][Co(C6H6O7)2]0.5(NO3)2{\textperiodcentered}2H2O, designated as [Co(tsc)3]2[Co(cit)2](NO3)4{\textperiodcentered}4H2O, was synthesized. Two crystallographically independent cobalt centers are present. In the first, the central metal atom is chelated by three thio-semicarbazide ligands in a bidentate fashion whereas the second, positioned on a crystallographic inversion center, is hexa-coordinated by two citrate anions in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. Additionally, two water mol-ecules and two nitrate anions are present in the\ asymmetric unit.\ Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the presence of numerous donor and acceptor groups in the complex, which facilitate hydrogen-bonding inter-actions that contribute significantly to the overall cohesion of the crystal structure.

A polymer complex of zinc(II) succinate with a 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadialole ligand, denoted as [Zn2L2(suc)2]n, was synthesized and characterized by NMR, ESI-MS, FTIR, and FT-Raman spectroscopy, TGA, and X-ray crystallography. The polymer complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic noncentrosymmetric Pna21 space group and features a five-coordinate zinc ion in a distorted spherical square pyramidal geometry. The Hirshfeld surface analysis was carried out to evaluate the intermolecular interactions. Additionally, computational studies were also conducted to assess the stability of the Zn polymer complex and analyze the electron density distribution of the HOMO and LUMO. The catalytic activity of our complex was tested, interestingly, that showed good results for Biginelli reactions with distinct substrate scope in good to high yield at mild reaction conditions.
