Popis: Coordination of ethyl carbamate via N rather than O to the pentaamminecobalt(III) moiety results in activation toward ligand hydrolysis. The carbonyl oxygen of the carbamate anion and of its ethyl ester (urethane) are preferentially coordinated in kinetically controlled syntheses. Noncoordinating bases facilitate the thermal rearrangement of the O-bound urethane complex in solution to the N-bonded linkage isomer, which has been isolated as its unreactive deprotonated form [(NH 3 ) 5 CoNHCO 2 C 2 H 5 ] 2+ . Similarly, the N-bound carbamate complex, previously believed to be an intermediate in the acid-induced conversion of [(NH 3 ) 5 CoNCO] 2+ to [(NH 3 ) 6 Co] 3+ and CO 2 , has been detected for the first time in this reaction
