Carbonatobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) chloride is a salt with the formula Cl (en = ethylenediamine). It is a red diamagnetic solid that is soluble in water. It is the monochloride salt of a cationic carbonate complex . The chloride ion in this salt readily undergoes ion exchange. The compound is synthesized by the oxidation of a mixture of cobalt(II) chloride, lithium hydroxide, and ethylenediamine in the presence of carbon dioxide:
- CoCl2 + 2 en + CO2 + 0.5 H2O2 + LiOH → Cl + H2O + LiCl
The cationic complex is octahedral with C2 symmetry.
The carbonato ligand is readily replaced upon acid hydrolysis. Derivatives include the following complexes: cis- and trans-, cis-, cis-, and cis-. Reaction with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (HOTf) gives OTf.
