cis-dichlorobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) chloride is a coordination complex with the formula [CoCl2(en)2]Cl (en = ethylenediamine). It is a violet diamagnetic solid that is soluble in water. One chloride ion in this salt readily undergoes ion exchange but the two other chlorides are less reactive being bound to the metal center.
