cobalt(II) ions

The influence of the reaction medium on the cleavage of hydrogen peroxide catalyzed with cobalt ions

The peculiarity of H2O2 cleavage catalyzed with cobalt(II)acetylacetonate has been studied by the method of inhibitors in different hydrophilic solvents. As established, physical-chemical properties of reaction medium can significantly affect the rate of peroxide decomposition and catalyst oxidation as well.
