An unusual example of a potassium capped terminal cobalt-oxido complex has been isolated and crystallographically characterized. The synthesis of [<sup><i>t</i>Bu,Tol</sup>DHP]CoOK proceeds from a previously reported parent compound, [<sup><i>t</i>Bu,Tol</sup>DHP]CoOH, <i>via</i> deprotonation with KO<sup><i>t</i></sup>Bu. Structural and electronic characterization suggest a weakly coupled dimer in a distinct seesaw geometry with a Co(III) oxidation state and a non-innocent radical ligand. ...[more]
