Chromium(III) acetate（Cat No.:M070462）is an inorganic coordination compound composed of trivalent chromium ions complexed with acetate ligands, typically forming a trinuclear structure [Cr₃O(OAc)₆(H₂O)₃]⁺. It appears as a dark violet or green solid, soluble in water and certain polar solvents. Chromium(III) acetate is commonly used in coordination chemistry research, catalysis, and material synthesis. It serves as a precursor for other chromium complexes and plays a role in studying metal–ligand interactions, redox behavior, and magnetic properties. Its stable +3 oxidation state makes it useful in exploring chromium-based biochemical and environmental processes.
