A Co II/III oxo-carboxylate cluster featuring a Lindqvist core

Abstract A nonanuclear mixed-valent coordination cluster, isolated as [CoIII3CoII6(µ6-O)(piv)7(thmp)4(MeCN)2(H2O)]·4(MeCN) (1), forms in a one-pot reaction of cobalt(II) pivalate and 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)propane (H3thmp) in acetonitrile solution. Single-crystal X-ray diffract...
