Abstract
The kinetics of formation and dissociation of the binuclear complex of cobalt(II) with pyridine-2-carboxylato(pentaammine) cobalt(III) have been studied in the temperature range 10–25°C and atI=0·3 mol dm−3 (ClO −4 . The formation of (NH3)5CoO2CC5H4NCo4+ in thepH range 2·35–3·20 involves the reaction of Co(OH2) 2+6 with the protonated (pyridine-N) and the deprotonated forms of the complex. The rate and activation parameters for the formation reaction are consistent with anI d mechanism. The binuclear species undergoes dissociation to yield the parent cobalt(III) substrate and cobalt(II) via spontaneous and acid-catalysed paths. The rate data at 20°C for the spontaneous dissociation of the binuclear complex and of mono(pyridine-2-carboxylato) cobalt(II) are comparable indicating the chelating nature of the binuclear species.
