Abstract

Water-soluble Co (III) and Co (II) complexes with P- or N-coordinated PTA or PTA oxide ligands, respectively, have been prepared and fully characterized, constituting the first examples of cobalt compounds bearing PTA or any ligand with a cage-like PTA core, the latter complex providing also the first PTA oxide coordination to a metal center.
