The reaction of CoX2 (X = Cl, Br, NO3) with KTp Ph2 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) yields the half-sandwich compounds [TpPh2CoX] (X = Cl 1, Br 2, NO33). The reaction of [TpPh2CoBr] with NaX (X = N3, NO2) or potassium thiocyanate (KNCS) permits isolation of [TpPh2CoX] (X = N 34, NCS 5, NO26). In contrast,...
