The title compound, [Co(C(5)H(5))(C(18)H(15)P)(2)]·0.2C(7)H(8)·0.25C(6)H(14), was synthesized by the reaction of cobaltocene, Cp(2)Co, with elemental lithium in tetra-hydro-furan in the presence of two equivalents of PPh(3). The mol-ecular structure displays a cobalt(I) center in a distorted trigonal-planar coordination environment, with one Cp and two phosphane ligands. There are two crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit besides the disordered solvent molecules.
