Description

Cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate is a model system that can be used to study the structures of coordination complexes. The cobalt ion has a coordination geometry with two water molecules, two oxygen atoms from the acetate anion, and one proton from the hydroxide anion. The crystal structure is composed of six-membered rings of alternating metal ions and oxygen atoms. The reaction solution contains excess sodium hydroxide and water vapor. It was determined that cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate reacts electrochemically at low frequencies as well as with 5-hmf, an oxidizing agent, in the presence of sodium citrate as an oxidation catalyst.
