Abstract

We have previously reported that pentacyanocobaltate (I1) reacts with organic halides to form stable organocobalt compounds according to eq. 1. The formation of pentacyanoorganocobaltate (II1) compounds, both by this method and by an alternative route involving the addition of Co (CN), H" to acti-
