We report here thermodynamic parameters associated with the photodegradation of water soluble (mu-peroxo)(mu-hydroxo)bis[bis(bipyridyl)Co(III)] and (mu-peroxo)(mu-hydroxo)bis[bis(phenanthroline)Co(III)] complexes. Photolysis of these complexes results in the release of dioxygen and the formation of the (H2O)(4).(L)(2)Co(II) complex where L = bipyridyl or phenanthroline. Photoacoustic calorimetry data reveals an enthalpy for photolysis of 71 kcal mol(-1) with a corresponding molar volume change of + 39 ml mol(-1) for the bipyridine complex. For the corresponding phenanthroline complex an enthalpy change of 68 kcal mol(-1) and molar volume change of + 19 ml mol(-1) are observed. These values are considered as a sum of the intrinsic volume changes due to the bond cleavage and bond formation and the volume change due to electrostriction. The larger volume change for the (mu-peroxo)(mu-hydroxo)bis[bis(bipyridyl)Co(III)] complex is attributed to a spin-state change of the Co ion upon photolysis which is not present in the (mu-peroxo)(mu-hydroxo)bis[bis(phenanthroline)Co(III)] photoproduct.
