METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING COBALT CATALYSTS

摘要

A method for manufacturing cobalt complexes having the formula: [Co(NH3)5M] Ty wherein M ligands are selected from substituted and unsubstituted C1-C30 carboxylic acids having the formula: RC(O)O-; said method comprising reactin g cobalt complexes having the formula: [Co(NH3)5X] Ty (e.g., X is chlorine) wi th concentrated ammonium hydroxide followed by carboxylic acid anhydride of the formula: RC(O)O(O)CR.
