The kinetics of the reduction of the cobalt(111) octahedral complexes, CoF(NH3)52+, CoCl(NH3)52+ and CoBr(NH3)52+, by iron((11) in various Me2SO-H2O mixtures have been studied over a range of temperatures. The activation parameters obtained for the chloro and bromo systems are consistent with a change in the stereochemistry of the iron (11) atom in the bridged intermediate from octahedral in water to tetrahedral with increasing Me2SO concentration. The fluoro system, however, has activation parameters which are less sensitive to solvent composition and consistent with the iron(11) atom maintaining octahedral coordination.
