Application
Hexaamminecobalt(III) chloride is primarily used as a reagent for pyrophosphoric acid and in the estimation of phosphate. In structural biology, it plays a crucial role, particularly with DNA and RNA, by stabilizing the tertiary structure of the phosphate backbone through its positive ions, aiding in structural determination via X-ray crystallography. Additionally, it exhibits notable antibacterial and antiviral properties. As an analog of fully solvated magnesium, hexamminecobalt(III) chloride can activate certain enzymes that require magnesium and is beneficial in DNA condensation studies.
