CAS: 932-69-4

Ref. 3D-AAA93269

Product Information

• Name: Cobaltous benzoate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Cobaltous benzoate is a diphenyl ether isomeric mixture that contains two different cobalt benzoates. It is a carboxylic acid, which has been used as an oxidation catalyst in particle formation and cationic polymerization reactions. It is also a coordination complex that forms hydrogen bonds with aromatic hydrocarbons and fatty acids. Cobaltous benzoate has been shown to be an effective catalyst for the reaction of hydrogen fluoride with aromatic hydrocarbons and fatty acids. The resulting products are hydroxyl groups, which are useful in the production of polymers such as 5-hmf.
