Abstract

Two remarkable features of bis(anthracene)-cobaltate(1 -) (see picture) are that it is the first homoleptic anthracene transition metal complex to be prepared by a conventional synthesis, that is, one not involving a metal atom reactor, and it is the first anionic complex of a late (Groups 7-11) transition metal containing only bound aromatic hydrocarbons.
