A series of tetranuclear arenecobalt carbonyls, ArHCo4(CO)9, are formed by treating hexacarbonylacetylenedicobalt complexes, (R1C2R2)Co2(CO)6, with arenes in the presence of norbornene derivatives, or from the cobalt carbonyls Co4(CO)12 and Co2(CO)8 by direct reaction with arenes. Stable complexes are obtained from alkyl- and alkoxy-benzenes, but not from halogeno- or acyl derivatives. The spectroscopic properties of the new complexes are reported.
