The reaction between cis-[Co(en)2Cl2]ClO4 and silver phenyl phosphate in anhydrous dimethyl sulfoxide yielded the dimeric cation {[Co(en)2(μ-O3POC6H5)] 2}2+ as the major product. An X-ray structure determination of the meso diastereomer as the triflate salt monohydrate showed that it consisted of two bis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) moieties bridged by two phosphate ester groups; the two cobalt atoms and two bridging ligands define an eight-membered ring. Crystals were of space group P21/c with a = 9.454 (5) A?, b = 28.683 (14) A?, c = 7.487 (4) A?, β = 97.21 (8)°, and Z = 4, R being 0.060 for 1675 reflections with I > 2.5σ(I). The racemic diastereomer has been resolved, and the corresponding rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism spectra are discussed.
