Abstract
Dichloro, dinitro, and diacetato cobalt(III) complexes of a new tetramine ligand, 1,7-bis(2-S-pyrrolidyl)-2,6-diazaheptane (SS-pyht) have been prepared and characterized. Only the trans isomer has been obtained for each complex. Oxalate ion reacts with trans-[Co(SS-pyht)Cl2]ClO4 in aqueous media to produce A-cis-β-[Co(SS-pyht)Ox]ClO4.
