The crystal structure of 4 revealed face-capping hydrides on each triangular [Co3] face, while the formal CoII2CoI4 oxidation state of 4 indicated a reduction of the cobalt centers during the assembly process. Cluster 4 catalyzes the hydrosilylation of 2-cyclohexen-1-one favoring the conjugate reduction. Generation of the catalytically reactive Co cluster species was indicated by a trapping experiment with a chiral chelating agent.}, pages = {15821--15825}, title = {Co6H8(P^iPr3)6: A Cobalt Octahedron with Face-Capping Hydrides}, volume = {55}, year = {2016} }
