Tetraphenylborate anion oxidation by acidic Co2+ cations: synthesis and properties of pyridine–cobalt(I) complexes

Abstract

The neutral cobalt(I) complex Co(py)2(η-BPh4)(py = pyridine) was obtained on removal of py and thf (thf = tetrahydrofuran) from [Co(py)3(thf)3][BPh4]2 and its crystal structure has been determined; in py as solvent, the former is converted into the ionic [Co(py)6][BPh4], which reduces CO2 to CO and water to dihydrogen.
