Abstract

... Journal of Organometallic Chemistry. ... The rearrangements are rationalised in terms of a reversible homolysis of the carbon-cobalt bond, rearrangement of the organic radical and recapture by the cobalt(II) fragment to give complexes that are more stable to irradiation than their ...
