Bonding in coordination chemistry
[Co(h20)6]3+ will oxidize water
[Co(Nh36]3+ is stable in aqueous solution
How is this possible? Both are mondentate ligands. I thought the proximity of the nitrogens after one has bonded to the cobalt would make it more likely to react, because the entropy would be lowered.They are also both low spin complexes
