Abstract

The composition of the solvation shell of chloropentaamminecobalt(III) was investigated for water + dimethyl sulfoxide solvent mixtures using the Gibbs free energy of transfer and PMR solvent line broadening data. Strong evidence was found for the formation of solvated species with a unique dimethyl sulfoxide molecule in the solvation shell, which substantiates a previous conclusion concerning the existence of such species.
