Abstract
Spectra of HCo(CO) 4 in a low temperature argon matrix show a weak band at 2018 cm −1. On irradiation, this band grows rapidly and additional bands (previously too weak to be readily observable) appear at 2025 and 485 cm −1. These three bands are assigned to HCo(CO) 3, a coordinatively unsaturated species persistently proposed as an intermediate in the hydroformylation reaction but not previously characterized.
