Common NameCobyrinate
DescriptionCobyrinate is a cobalt-containing metabolite belonging to the chemical class of corrinoids, which are characterized by a corrin ring structure that coordinates a central cobalt ion. This unique structure allows cobyrinate to participate in various catalytic processes, particularly in photochemical reactions. For instance, the tuning of its axial coordination with thiolates enhances its ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) properties, facilitating efficient atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) under low-energy light irradiation (PMID:39655776 ). Additionally, the monocyano form of heptabutyl cobyrinate has been shown to form nanoparticles with strong noncovalent interactions, exhibiting emerging optical and catalytic properties (PMID:39217725 ). Furthermore, derivatives such as heptamethyl cobyrinate demonstrate bioactivity and have been utilized as precatalysts for controlling the polymerization of acrylate monomers (PMID:37606469 ). The catalytic activity of heptamethyl ester cobyrinate in the oxidation of alkanes has also been explored, highlighting its versatility in chemical transformations (PMID:35696150 ). Overall, cobyrinate's structural features and coordination chemistry enable its involvement in diverse chemical pathways, particularly in catalysis and polymerization processes.
