We conducted a detailed kinetic study of the reaction of the vitamin B<sub>12</sub> analog diaquacobinamide ((H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>Cbi(III)) with hydrogen sulfide in water from pH 3 to 11. The reaction proceeds in three steps: (i) formation of three different complexes between cobinamide and hydrogen sulfide, viz. (HO<sup>-</sup>)(HS<sup>-</sup>)Cbi(III), (H<sub>2</sub>O)(HS<sup>-</sup>)Cbi(III), and (HS<sup>-</sup>)<sub>2</sub>Cbi(III); (ii) inner-sphere electron transfer (ISET) in the tw ...[more]
