![The tetrahedral tetrachlorocobaltate(II) salts are an excellent contrast to the
octahedral Werner complexes of cobalt(III). Their preparation utilizes large
counter-cations to crystallize the complex from a weakly coordinating solvent.¹
The synthesis of tetrachlorocobaltate(II) salts again begins with CoCl2-6H₂O:
2 NEt4Cl + CoCl2 6H2O (NEt4)2COCI4+ 6H₂O
[eq. 1]
Dissolve 2.6 g NEt4CI-H₂O in 30 mL absolute ethanol. Add a solution of
1.78 g CoCl2-6H₂O in 35 mL absolute ethanol. The desired compound crystallizes
at this stage as a blue precipitate. Heat the solution to 75 °C, adding more
ethanol if necessary to obtain a clear solution. Slowly cool to crystallize the
compound as deep blue crystals. Collect the crystals with a sintered glass filter (a
Buchner funnel is ok but use two pieces of filter paper). Analyze the product by
FTIR (use separate spatulas for sample and KBr) and UV-Vis spectroscopy
(accurately measure 7 mg sample in precisely 25 mL of acetonitrile; plastic
cuvettes are ok to use). Calculate the extinction coefficient of the complex and the
percent yield.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fd6957468-6fb1-4659-9083-987b06676d6d%2Fde5e9871-745a-46fe-8e1c-20b7816b53e8%2Fpfgffo_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
