Abstract
The cyclopendatieny[ di- and tri-cyanides of cobalt, C5H5Co(CN)2PPh3 and [C5H5Co(CN)3- have been prepared by reaction of cyanide with C5H5Co(PPh3)I2 and C5H5Co(CO)I2 respectively. The anionic tricyanide has been isolated as its potassium and its benzyl triphenylphosphonium salt and has been alkylated to yield the neutral mono- and dicationic tris-(alkylisocyanide) complexes C5H5Co(CN)22CNMe and [C5H5Co(CNEt)3]2+.
