Four- and five-membered cobaltacycles by regioselective cyclometallation of benzyl sulfide derivatives via Co(v) intermediates.
C-H activation through the coordination of a benzyl sulfide anchoring group with a C-S bond cleavage at a Co(v) center constitutes a regiospecific access to four- and five-membered metallacycles under mild conditions.
