Abstract
The preparation of the diaquo- forms of the incomplete corrinoids, cobyric acid, cobinamide, and three isomeric cobinic acid pentaamides, from the corresponding aquocyanocorrinoids has been accomplished. The compounds were characterized by electronic absorption spectra, pk a values, and HPLC/TLC behavior. Upon titration, the acids exhibited three pK a values, but only the pK a corresponding to the carboxylic acid involved the transfer of a full equivalent of protons. In addition, the progress of diaquo- to dihydroxo-titration, and the spectrum of the final products indicated a complex process. These diaquocorrinoids appear to be unstable, and should be stored in solution, frozen, under an inert atmosphere.
