The reactions of arene sulfenyl chlorides, ArSCl, (Ar=Ph, C6Cl5, 2,4 (NO2)2C6H3) with organocobaloximes, RCo(dmgH)2Py, (R=alkyl, benzyl and heteroaromaticmethyl) were carried out under thermal and photochemical conditions. A variety of organic and organometallic products are formed depending upon the substrate cobaloxime. For 3-methoxybenzyl and heteroaromaticmethyl cobaloximes the results suggest that they represent a unique class of cobaloximes whereby both the aromatic ring as well as the Co-C bond are highly activated towards attack by the arene sulfenyl chloride. Both homolytic as well as heterolytic pathways are operative.
