PHASE TRANSFER CATALYSIS USING COBALT TRICARBONYL NITROSYL

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0022-328X(00)85541-2

The first example of the use a mononuclear cobalt complex in a phase-transfer catalyzed process is described.The carbonylation of halides catalyzed by cobalt tricarbonyl nitrosyl gives, depending on the organic substrate, appreciably different results as compared with dicobalt octacarbonyl.
