An amine-templated cobalt(II) sulfate with the kagome lattice, prepared for the first time, exhibits magnetic properties comparable to those of the analogous Fe(III) compounds.

Resolution of a tricarboxylic acid derived from a chiral tris(dipyrrinato)cobalt(III) complex provides a series of enantiopure metallotectons that crystallise as porous hydrogen-bonded networks.

Increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has been associated with the hyperphosphatemia seen in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). Oral phosphate binders are prescribed in these patients to prevent intestinal absorption of dietary phosphate and reduce serum phosphate. In prospective observational cohorts they have shown to decrease all-cause and cardiovascular mortali...

Mechanistic studies have revealed that the isospecific polymerization of epoxides by a discrete salen cobalt(III) catalyst occurs at the surface of the undissolved, crystalline complex.
