Abstract
Air oxidation of a Co-II(salen) derivative, whose ethanediyl moiety ca rries a methylene-linked 4-hydroxypent-1-en-3-yl substituent, yields a n intramolecularly bridged (tetrahydrofurfuryl)Co-III(salen) complex o f which the crystal structure has been determined; this B-12 model is very resistant to Co-C bond homolysis, even in the presence of a large excess of the radical trap TEMPO.
