Abstrakt: A new series of cobalt(III) complexes of the type [Co(H2biim)n(en)3−n]3+(H2biim = 2,2′-biimidazole; n= 1—3) was obtained. All of the complexes were resolved into their antipodes by SP-Sephadex column chromatography. The absorption, circular dichroism, and 1H NMR spectra of the complexes in aqueous solutions were dependent on the pH due to deprotonation of the imino protons of H2biim. The pKa1and pKa2values for [Co(H2biim)(en)2]3+were obtained as 5.9 and 9.9, respectively, from the absorption spectra in aqueous solutions. The optically active deprotonated complexes, (−)589-[Co(Hbiim)3]·2H2O and (−)589-Ba1.5[Co(biim)3]·2H2O, were also isolated from weakly and strongly basic aqueous solutions, respectively, of (−)589-[Co(H2biim)3](NO3)3·H2O.
