Chromium acetate hydroxide
open-in-new
<h2 id="structure">Structure</h2> <p>The complex is a <a href="/facts/Tetramer/qeUFnwC4">tetramer</a> of binuclear Cr2(OH)3(OAc)3. The subunits are linked by <a href="/facts/Acetate/U90VVczy">acetate</a> and <a href="/facts/Hydroxide/zW0wxpWD">hydroxide</a> <a href="/facts/Ligand/6etB3qeW">ligands</a>. The oxidation state of chromium is +3, which explains the stability of the complex since octahedral d3 ions give kinetically robust complexes. Overall, the complex's structure is unusual compared to other <a href="/facts/Transition_metal_carboxylate_complex/bEy5Rdh4">transition metal carboxylate complexes</a>. </p> <h2 id="see-also">See also</h2> <ul><li><a href="/facts/Chromium(II)_acetate/vUCPTqW1">Chromium(II) acetate</a></li> <li><a href="/facts/Chromium(III)_acetate/Rew2KRK9">Chromium(III) acetate</a></li></ul> <h2 id="external-links">External links</h2> <ul><li><a href="http://www.chemicalbook.com/ChemicalProductProperty_EN_CB9726110.htm">http://www.chemicalbook.com/ChemicalProductProperty_EN_CB9726110.htm</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.chemicalbook.com/CAS%5Cmol%5C39430-51-8.mol">http://www.chemicalbook.com/CAS%5Cmol%5C39430-51-8.mol</a></li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120119193658/http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/ProductDetail.do?D7=0&N5=SEARCH_CONCAT_PNO%7CBRAND_KEY&N4=318108%7CALDRICH&N25=0&QS=ON&F=SPEC">https://web.archive.org/web/20120119193658/http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/ProductDetail.do?D7=0&N5=SEARCH_CONCAT_PNO%7CBRAND_KEY&N4=318108%7CALDRICH&N25=0&QS=ON&F=SPEC</a></li></ul> <h2 id="references">References</h2> <ol> <li id="fn:1"><p>Eshel, Michal; Bino, Avi; Felner, Israel; Johnston, David C.; Luban, Marshall; Miller, Lance L.
