The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C4H7N2)2[CoCl4], consists of two 2-methylimidazolium cations and one tetrahedral [CoCl4]2− anion. The anions and cations interact through N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds to define layers with a stacking direction along [100]. Besides van der Waals forces, weak C—H...Cl interactions between these layers stabilize the crystal packing
