Application

Potassiumhexacyanocobaltate(III) can be used as a complexing agent to synthesize double metal cyanide catalyst:
  • For the chemoselective reductive amination of carbonyl compounds with aromatic amines to synthesize substituted amines in the presence of polymethylhydrosiloxane as a reducing agent.
  • In the ring opening polymerization of propylene oxide to synthesize polyols.
  • In the coupling reaction of CO2 with hydrous epoxides to synthesize cyclic carbonates.

It has been proposed that metal cyanide complexes would have acted as effective prebiotic catalysts. Insoluble metal cyanide complexes could have concentrated biomonomers from the dilute prebiotic soup, facilitating certain prebiotic reactions. In the light of the above hypothesis, interaction
