Procedure

To a reaction flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer and thermometer was charged 9.50 g (0.158 mole) of acetic acid, 9.0 g of mineral spirits and 40 g of 0.1N sodium hydroxide. Cobalt foil was used as the anode and a graphite rod as the cathode. After passing 14,970 coulombs of electricity, 4.32 g (0.073 mole) of cobalt was consumed. The organics were isolated and were tertiurated with acetone. A solid precipitated out of the solution which was filtered and dried. This gave a violet solid material that contained 31.02% cobalt.
