The cobalt carbonate basic salt is the commercially-used cobalt carbonate. It is used primarily for manufacturing cobalt pigments. It also is used to prepare cobalt(II) oxide and other cobalt salts.

The mauve colored cobalt(II) carbonate [7542-09-8] of commerce is a basic material of indeterminate stoichiometry, (CoCO ) ( (0 )2) H20, that contains 45—47% cobalt. It is prepared by adding a hot solution of cobalt salts to a hot sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate solution. Precipitation from cold solutions gives a light blue unstable product. Dissolution of cobalt metal in ammonium carbonate solution followed by thermal decomposition of the solution gives a relatively dense carbonate. Basic cobalt carbonate is virtually insoluble in water, but dissolves in acids and ammonia solutions. It is used in the preparation of pigments and as a starting material in the preparation of cobalt compounds.

Cobalt Tetra-carbonyl, Co(C0)4 or Co2(CO)g.—This compound may be prepared by passing carbon monoxide at a pressure of 40 atmospheres over reduced cobalt at 150° C. The higher the pressure the more rapid is the formation of the earbonyl.7 It forms as fine, orange-coloured transparent crystals, which are best preserved by hermetically sealing them in a glass tube in an atmosphere of hydrogen or of carbon monoxide. Upon exposure to air decomposition takes place resulting in the formation of a basic cobalt carbonate. With bromine it yields cobalt bromide and carbon monoxide ...

The other type of radical chemistry of importance in the carbohydrate field is one-electron reductions. A handful of these reactions (such as the metallic Zn reduction of acetobromoglucose to triacetylglucal) have been used in synthesis for decades, but, starting with the Barton-McCombie deoxygenation of sugars in the mid-1970s there has been an explosion of interest, as increasingly sophisticated cascades of elementary radical steps have been devised. Such reactions are driven by the homolysis of weak bonds such as Sn-H or N-O under conditions of photolysis or mild thermolysis. Nature uses a similar basic principle in Type II ribonucleotide reductases, where the weak bond in question is the cobalt-carbon a bond in the corrin cofactor. ...

It was made by dissolving finely ground cobalt carbonate in ethereal hydrazoic acid. After 3-4 days the clear solution is evaporated to obtain reddish-brown crystals. The product, which retains some water tenaciously, is best stored protected from light under ethereal hydrazoic acid [156]. In another approach, cobalt carbonate was dissolved in aqueous hydrazoic acid and the solution concentrated to obtain a basic azide. This was again dissolved in strong hydrazoic acid to produce the reddish-brown crystals. The product was considered to be Co(N3)2 [157] but was not analyzed.

The accepted mechanism for the carbonylation of epoxides is shown in Scheme 17.26, and the basic steps of this cycle are also thought to occur during the carbonylation of aziridines. Alper first proposed a catalytic cycle for the expansion carbonylation of aziridines by [Co(CO)J, and Coates has proposed a similar cycle for epoxide carbonylation catalyzed by complexes containing both Lewis acids and cobalt-carbonyl anions (Scheme 17.26). This mechanism consists of four steps (1) the activation of substrate by coordination to a Lewis acid (2) the S 2 attack on the substrate by [Co(CO)J (3) the insertion of CO into the new cobalt-carbon bond, and the subsequent uptake of CO and (4) ring closing with extrusion of product and regeneration of the catalytic species. 

More interesting is the finding by R. H. Abeles of Brandeis University that the C-5 hydrogen of the coenzyme is also replaced by tritium when 1,2-[1- H] propanediol is used as substrate and the tritium could be transferred back to the product. In his view, the three nonequivalent hydrogen atoms of the 5 -deoxyadenosine moiety have equally a one-third probability of transfer back to the substrate. Consequently, the enzyme does not distinguish between the two prochiral hydrogens at C-5 and shows that the role of the coenzyme Bi2 is basically to act as carrier. This apparent lack of stereoselectivity involved an homolytic cleavage of a cobalt-carbon bond (see below).
