Organocobalt complexes photochemical

L = [14]ane N4) haAre been used to make RS thiyl radicals, which in turn unexpectedly react with [EtCo(L)(H2P)]2+ to foim C2H4 and RSH.239-241 Addition of base to [(tacn)Co(L)] (tacn = 1,4,7-tiiazacyclononane L = l,6-diamino-3-thiahexane) causes deprotonation of L and formation of an N,C,N-bonded ligand, in equilibrium with its N,S,N-bonded fonn. > 3 other Co(III) alkyls have been produced by photochemical decarboxylation of chelate carboxylate complexes. The synthesis and structure of the nl-C 02 polymer [ Co(en)2(C02)) QO4 H20 ]n has been reported.246 The structure of [Co(salen)(Pr )(py)] has been determined,247 and tandem cyclisation reactions involving organocobalt salen and salophen complexes have been described.248.249...
