Abstract
A novel layered hydrotalcite-like material, Co7(H2O)2(OH)12(C2H4S2O6), has been prepared hydrothermally and the structure determined
using single crystal X-ray diffraction (a ¼ 6.2752(19) Å, b ¼ 8.361(3) Å, c ¼ 9.642(3) Å, a ¼ 96.613(5)8, b ¼ 98.230(5)8,
g ¼ 100.673(5)8, R1 ¼ 0:0551). The structure consists of brucite-like sheets where 1/6 of the octahedral sites are replaced by two
tetrahedrally coordinated Co(II) above and below the plane of the layer. Ethanedisulfonate anions occupy the space between layers and
provide charge balance for the positively charged layers. The compound is ferrimagnetic, with a Curie temperature of 33 K, Curie –Weiss u
of 2 31 K, and a coercive field of 881 Oe at 5 K.

It is interesting to note that layered hydroxides similar to
this are typically metamagnetic as long as the spacing
between the layers is less than 10 Å. While the spacing in References
[1] is less (9.64 Å), the coupling between adjacent layers is
apparently ferromagnetic. The availability of high quality [1] C. Mockenhaupt, T. Zeiske, H.D. Lutz, J. Mol. Struct. 443 (1998)
