Abstract

The photochemistry of trans-Co(CN)4(SO3)(X)n- (X= SO32-, OH-, or OH2) is reported. The principal pfeotoreactions involve substitution of the sulfito group yielding aquation products. Photoreduction to yield Co(II) is a minor reaction. Disappearance quantum yields are in the range 0.1-0.6 and are modestly affected by variation in the wavelength of the exciting light.
