Abstract

The γ-cyanopropyl group bonded to the cobalt atom in some cobaloxime complexes was isomerized to the α-cyanopropyl group through β-cyanopropyl group on exposure to visible light in the solid state. For the complex with 1-phenylethylamine as an axial base ligand almost chiral α-cyanopropyl group was produced with retention of the single crystal form. The mechanism is discussed on the basis of the structural change.
