Abstract
A new redox-active cobalt(III) complex containing the 2-oxo-2Н-chromene-6,7-diolate dianion and 4,4ʹ-dimethoxy-2,2ʹ-bipyridine as ligands is synthesized. The reduction of the sythesized complex with ascorbic acid in an inert atmosphere is studied in situ by NMR spectrocopy. The reduction is shown to result in the release of 6,7-dihydrocycoumarin acting as a model drug. This process has the first order with respect to the initial complex.
