%X [(NH3)5CoO3PF]+ undergoes base hydrolysis in 0.1-0.3 M NaOH, µ = 1.0, at 25ºC to generate free FPO32-, F- and [(NH3)4Co(OH)(NH2PO3)] with a second-order rate constant k2 3.3 &#215; 10 mol-1 s-1 where k2 is the composite rate constant for FPO32- release and hydrolysis of F- with the two products being formed in approximately equal amounts. The measured rate constitutes an estimated enhancement of about 1010 over the base hydrolysis of the uncoordinated FPO32- ion under the same conditions when the concentration of the coordinated nucleophile is taken into account.
