Syntheses reported for the pentaammine(trifluoromethanesulfonato-O) complexes can be readily adapted for other amine or multidentate amine analogs. Syntheses of coIbalt(III) complexes with 1,2-ethanediamine or A -ethyl-l,2-eth-anediamine ligands have been reported earlier in this series. To exemplify the procedures further, trifluoromethanesulfonato-O complexes of cobalt(III), chro-mium(III), and rhodium(III) with unidentate methylamine ligands based on the readily prepared [M(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 precursors are reported here. The following sections report syntheses of 1,2-ethanediamine complexes of Rh(III) and Irflll) and of Ru(II) and Os(II) diimines with trifluoromethanesulfonato ligands. Such syntheses indicate the diversity of the synthesis technique, and the complexes described are excellent precursors for other compounds.
