Cobalt laurate is an metal-organic compound with the chemical formula C
24H
48CoO
4.[1] It is classified as a metallic soap, i.e. a metal derivative of a fatty acid (lauric acid).

Synthesis

Cobalt laurate can be prepared by the reaction of aqueous solutions of cobalt(II) chloride (CoCl2) with sodium laurate.[2]

Physical properties

Cobalt laurate forms dark violet crystals.[3]

It does not dissolve in water,[4] but is soluble in alcohol.
