Only a few other cobalt complexes of the type covered in this review (and therefore excluding, for example, the cobalt carbonyls) have been reported to act as catalysts for homogeneous hydrogenation. The complex Co(DMG)2 will catalyze the hydrogenation of benzil (PhCOCOPh) to benzoin (PhCHOHCOPh). When this reaction is carried out in the presence of quinine, the product shows optical activity. The degree of optical purity varies with the nature of the solvent and reaches a maximum of 61.5% in benzene. It was concluded that asymmetric synthesis occurred via the formation of an organocobalt complex in which quinine was coordinated in the trans position (133). Both Co(DMG)2 and cobalamin-cobalt(II) in methanol will catalyze the following reductive methylations ... 

Courtot-Coupez and Le Bihan [209,210] determined the optimum pH (7.4) for extraction of non-ionic surfactants with the above complex-benzene system. Cobalt in the extract is estimated by AAS after evaporation to dryness and dissolution of the residue in methyl isobutyl ketone. The method is applicable to surfactant concentrations in the range 0.02-0.5 mg/1 and is not seriously affected by the presence of anionic surfactants.

Another type of activation of aluminum alkyl was found in the asymmetric-selective polymerization of epichlorohydrin (ECH) with an optically active cobalt-salen type complex [Co (II)]. The structure of the salen-type cobalt complex was shown previously (13, 14). In a benzene solution of the binary system consisting of [Co (II)] and AlEt, no evolution of ethane or ethylene was observed at room temperature. The NMR signals of the methyl protons for AlEt shifted down field on mixing with [Co (II)]. These observations together with a circular dichroism study indicated that AlEt and [Co (II)] formed a molecular complex in benzene, none of Al-Et bonds being cleaved by this complexation.

The only claim for the production of a metallocarboxylic acid from the insertion of C02 into a metal-hydrogen bond in the opposite sense is based on the reaction of C02 with [HCo(N2)(PPh3)3] (108, 136). The metallocarboxylic acid is said to be implicated since treatment of the product in benzene solution with Mel followed by methanolic BF3 yielded a considerable amount of methyl acetate as well as methyl formate derived from the cobalt formate complex. Metallocarboxylic acid species formed by attack of H20 or OH- on a coordinated carbonyl are considered in the section on CO oxidation. 

Acetylenes are well known to undergo facile trimerizations to derivatives of benzene in the presence of various transition metal catalysts 23). A number of mechanisms for this process have been considered including the intervention of metal-cyclobutadiene complexes 24). This chemistry, however, was subjected to close examination by Whitesides and Ehmann, who found no evidence for species with cyclobutadiene symmetry 25). Cyclotrimeri-zation of 2-butyne-l,l,l-d3 was studied using chromium(III), cobalt(II), cobalt(O), nickel(O), and titanium complexes. The absence of 1,2,3-trimethyl-4,5,6-tri(methyl-d3) benzene in the benzene products ruled out the intermediacy of cyclobutadiene-metal complexes in the formation of the benzene derivatives. The unusual stability of cyclobutadiene-metal complexes, however, makes them dubious candidates for intermediates in this chemistry. Once formed, it is doubtful that they would undergo sufficiently facile cycloaddition with acetylenes to constitute intermediates along a catalytic route to trimers. 

That the kinetically derived relative adsorption constants, Kab, decrease with the numbers of alkyl substituents is surprising because alkyl substituents increase the basicity of the benzene ring and stabilize Tl -arene transition metal complexes. The directly measured adsorption coefficients of benzene, toluene, p-xylene and mesitylene on a cobalt catalyst at 89 °C do increase with the number of methyl groups and the rates of hydrogenation decrease in that order. A consensus regarding the significance of the kinetically determined adsorption constants has not been reached. ... 

Benzene can be separated over cyclohexane with an revalue of 26 with a polvinyl alcohol-poly(allylamine) blend containing a cobalt(II) complex.213 An a-value of 60 has been obtained by pervaporation with a poly(acrylonitrile-co-methyl methacrylate) membrane.214 Membranes of porous polyethylene grafted with glycidyl methacrylate215 and poly(A,A-dimethylacrylamide-co-methyl methacrylate)216 have also been used in this separation with separation factors of 21-22. This is a separation that would be difficult to do by size and by distillation. The two boil only 2°C apart. The cyclohexane produced by the reduction of benzene is the starting material for nylon. The best solution to the problem is to run the reduction to 100% completion. 

Epoxidation of olefins was catalyzed by the ruthenium(II) complex of the above perfluorinated y3-diketone in the presence of 2-methylpropanal (Scheme 50). Unfunctionalized olefins were epoxidized with a cobalt-containing porphyrin complex, and epoxidation of styrene derivatives was catalyzed by chiral salen manganese complexes (248) (Scheme 50). In the latter case, chemical yields were generally high, however, the products showed low enantiomeric excess with the exception of indene (92% ee). [Pd(C7Fi5COCHCOC7Fi5)2] efficiently catalyzed the oxidation of terminal olefins to methyl ketones with f-butylhydroperoxide as oxidant in a benzene-bromoperfluoro-octane solvent system (Scheme 50). In all these reactions, the product isolation and efficient catalyst recycle was achieved by a simple phase separation.
