The reaction of Hg(TePh)2 with AgX (X = Cl, NO3) in the presence of PPh3 and PMePh2 in dimethylformamide (DMF) affords the cluster [Hg6Ag4(TePh)16] (1) at room temperature or [Hg6Ag4Te(TePh)14]2 (2) with heating. When Hg(TePh)2 is reacted with [Co(PPh3)2Cl2] or [Ni(PPh3)2Cl2], the clusters [Hg8Te(PhTe)12Cl4]Q [3; Q = [Co(DMF)6]2+ (3a), [Ni(DMF)6]2+ (3b)] are formed. The syntheses of 1 and 2 occur with the incorporation of AgI into the cluster, and the single-crystal analyses show that the two ternary clusters consist of Hg, Ag, and Te centers occupying well-defined positions. Compounds 3a and 3b do not show the incorporation of the metal into the cluster, but the CoII and NiII salts provide the Cl atom to generate the anionic cluster 3 stabilized by the [Co(DMF)6]2+ or [Ni(DMF)6]2+ ion.

Catalytic activity in arylzinc compound formation was studied for eight Co complexes with phosphines along with their redox properties for implementing the idea of rational design. It was found that Co(XantPhos)Cl and Co(-XantPhos)Cl demonstrated distinct reversible Co/Co redox processes and acted as efficient catalysts of arylzinc compound formation. Meanwhile, for Co(DPEphos)Cl, Co(dppf)Cl, Co(dppb)Cl, Co(PPh)Cl, and Co(XantPhos)(Piv) (the latter one without the addition of LiCl), reversible redox processes were not observed.

In the course of the study, nanocrystalline cobalt monoboride was prepared by thermal decomposition of precursors [Co(DMF)][An], where [An] = [BH] (), [-BH] () or [BCl] () in an argon atmosphere. Three new salt-like compounds - were prepared when Co(NO) was allowed to react with (EtNH)[An]. Compound is new; the structures of compounds and have been previously reported.

A series of new W-Co-S clusters have been synthesized utilizing the complex [EtN][(Tp*)WS] (Tp* = hydridotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate(1-)) as the synthetic template, by rational control of the stoichiometry of reactants and by employment of a reductant or precipitant as an auxiliary reagent. By solubility control or addition of a precipitant to avoid the involvement of Cl in the reaction, the cluster [(Tp*)WS]Co (2) could be obtained. With different ratios of the Co source to the template, together with the use of an appropriate amount of reducing reagent, clusters [{(Tp*)WS}Co] (3) and [{(Tp*)WS}CoCl] (4) could be synthesized as their EtN salts, and [{(Tp*)WS}CoCl(DMF)] (5) could be isolated as its [Co(DMF)] salt.

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Co(DMF)(6)](ClO(4))(2) (DMF = N,N-dimethyl-formamide, C(3)H(7)NO), consists of two half complex cations with the Co(2+) metal ions located on centers of inversion and two perchlorate anions. In the crystal packing, each Co(2+) ion is coordinated by six mol-ecules of DMF in a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry. The crystal structure is mainly stabilized by coordinative, ionic and C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
