(3,3-Dimethyl-1-butyne)dicobalt hexacarbonyl, also known as CCTBA or dicobalt hexacarbonyl t-butylacetylene, is a dark red liquid with the molecular formula C₁₂H₁₀Co₂O₆ and a molecular weight of 368.07 g/mol. This compound, with a high purity of 99.90% determined by integration NMR, is widely used in organometallic chemistry, particularly in catalytic processes and materials science.
This cobalt-based compound is highly reactive and sensitive to air, which requires it to be handled and stored in air-free, inert conditions. The use of sealed containers and inert atmospheres like nitrogen or argon is recommended to prevent decomposition and preserve its reactivity. The compound is often used in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and other specialized applications where cobalt complexes play a critical role.
Dicobalt hexacarbonyl t-butylacetylene is commonly employed as a catalyst or precursor in organic synthesis, particularly in reactions involving the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. Its ability to participate in metal-mediated transformations makes it valuable in both academic research and industrial applications. Additionally, it is used in advanced material development, including coatings and high-performance materials.
This compound presents several health hazards, and proper precautions are necessary when handling it. It is classified as flammable (H227), harmful if ingested (H302), absorbed through the skin (H312), or inhaled (H332). It can also cause skin irritation (H315), eye irritation (H319), and may trigger allergic skin reactions (H317). Long-term exposure can pose more serious risks, including respiratory sensitization (H334) and possible carcinogenicity (H351). Therefore, the use of personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, and respirators is essential, along with adequate ventilation.
CCTBA, or dicobalt hexacarbonyl t-butylacetylene, is a highly reactive and versatile compound used in catalysis and material science. Its sensitivity to air and hazardous nature necessitate careful handling and storage, but its utility in advanced chemical processes makes it a valuable tool in both research and industry.
(3,3-Dimethyl-1-butyne)dicobalt hexacarbonyl has been used as a precursor of Co films deposited by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) for Cu direct plating. The electrical properties of PEALD Co films of sub-20 nm thickness were determined by assessing continuities, morphologies, and impurities. To decrease the resistivity of Co films, a TaNx substrate was pre-treated with H2 plasma and the flow rate of H2 gas during CCTBA feeding and reactant feeding pulses was increased. Co films were deposited on a 3 nm-thick TaNx-covered SiO2 substrate with 24 nm-deep trenches, and Cu direct plating was successfully performed under conventional conditions. Cobalt is an important component of thin layers used in microelectronics like magnetoresistive devices, integrated circuits as well as lithium battery technologies and spintronics. See links below
