Abstract

Cationic arene complexes [Cb*Co(naphthalene)]+ (2, Cb* = C4Me4) and [Cb*Co(phenanthrene)]+ were synthesized by the reactions of [Cb*Co(MeCN)3]+ with arenes. The [Cb*Co(anthracene)]+ complex was synthesized by the abstraction of the iodide ion from [Cb*CoI]2 by TIBF4 in the presence of anthracene. Complex 2 exchanges the naphthalene ligand for other arenes at room temperature.
