Abstract
The equilibrium between acetylcobalt tetracarbonyl on one side and met hylcobalt tetracarbonyl and carbon monoxide on the other has been dete rmined in the 0-100 degrees C temperature range. The decarbonylation o f acetylcobalt tetracarbonyl is endothermic (Delta H=11.2+/-0.6 Kcal m ol(-1)) and is accompanied by a positive entropy change (Delta S=19.5/-2.0 e.u.).
