Bis (4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)cobalt(III) chloride, (DIP)2Co(III)Cl2, was prepared as follows: 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Aldrich) was dissolved in a minimum volume of ethanol to which one half stoichiometric CoCl2.6H2O was added. The green-brown solution was oxidized by using Br2 /H2O, and a heavy orange precipitate formed immediately. The solution was refluxed for 1 h, and concentrated hydrochloride was added. The bromine oxidation was then repeated. The crude complex was recrystallized in aqueous ethanol. Other cobalt(III) complexes of this invention may be prepared by this method by substituting the appropriate ligand for 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline.
