Cobalt(II) chloride is an inorganic compound, a salt of cobalt and chlorine, with the formula CoCl 2.The compound forms several hydrates CoCl 2 ·n H 2 O, for n = 1, 2, 6, and 9. . Claims of the formation of tri- and tetrahydrates have not been confirmed
Many halides of cobalt(II) are known.e cobalt(II) fluoride (CoF 2) which is a pink solid, cobalt(II) chloride (CoCl 2) which is a blue solid, cobalt(II) bromide (CoBr 2) which is a green solid, and cobalt(II) iodide (CoI 2) which is a blue-black solid. In addition to the anhydrous forms, these cobalt halides also have hydrates.

Cobalt(III) chloride or cobaltic chloride is an unstable and elusive compound of cobalt and chlorine with formula CoCl 3. In this compound, the cobalt atoms have a formal charge of +3. [1] The compound has been reported to exist in the gas phase at high temperatures, in equilibrium with cobalt(II) chloride and chlorine gas.
Consequently, cobalt(III) chloride would spontaneously reduce to cobalt(II) chloride and chlorine. Because the reduction potential for fluorine to fluoride is so high, +2.87 V, cobalt(III) fluoride is one of the few simple stable cobalt(III) compounds.

The salt is prepared with a two-step process starting with oxidizing a solution of cobalt chloride and ammonia. [1] [2] 2 CoCl 2 ·6H 2 O + 10 NH 3 + 2 HCl + H 2 O 2 → 2 [Co(NH 3) 5 (OH 2)]Cl 3 + 12 H 2 O. This intermediate is then heated to induce coordination of one of the outer sphere chloride ligands: [Co(NH 3) 5 (OH 2)]Cl 3 → [Co(NH 3 ...
The compound is synthesized by the reaction of cobalt(II) chloride and ethylenediamine in hydrochloric acid in the presence of oxygen: . 4 CoCl 2 + 8 en + 4 HCl + O 2 → 4 trans-[CoCl 2 (en) 2]Cl + 2 H 2 O
