✦ Synopsis
The crystal structure of the title compound, CoK 2 (H 2 -P 2 O 7 ) 2 Á2H 2 O, is, to our knowledge, the ®rst example of a mixed-metal dihydrogendiphosphate, containing an alkali earth metal and a divalent transition metal. The metal ions and the two water O atoms are located on a crystallographic mirror plane.
