Synthesis, structural characterization, and electrocatalytic hydrogen generation activity of fac-tris(β-oxodithioester-O^S)cobalt(III) complexes

With the growing interest in cobalt-based complexes for electrocatalytic applications, we synthesized four homoleptic facial-octahedral Co(III) β-oxodithioester complexes (1-4) with the general composition [Co(L)3], where L represents 3-(methylthio)-1-(furan-2-yl)-3-thioxo prop-1-en-1-olate (L1),...
