Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.
The diamagnetic correction for [Co(ox)3]4- is not a straightforward concept. Diamagnetic corrections are typically applied to calculate the effective magnetic moment of a paramagnetic complex. However, [Co(ox)3]4- is a diamagnetic complex, meaning it has no unpaired electrons and therefore no magnetic moment to correct. The complex is likely low-spin, with all electrons paired in the d orbitals of the cobalt ion.
