Electrochemical studies of the oxidation and reduction of dicobalta–superphane complexes

Chemistry of the highly stable hindered cobalt sandwich compound (η5-Cp)Co(η4-C4Ph4) and its derivatives

“…When all hydrogen atoms of both conjugated π-systems are replaced by bridges between the π-units, the term "superphane" is used [154]. The cage structures of these cyclophanes exhibit an inside and an outside face leading to two binding modes for a metal atom or metal fragment to the π-systems [inside the cage (endohedral e.g.…”
