. 3. (a) Cobaltocene reacts with tetrachloromethane to give two different products that are depicted below. Explain the driving force behind the reactivity of cobaltocene towards the organic reagent, propose a plausible mechanism leading to the bis(Cs-ring) cobalt products, and explain the observed differences in the structure of the TWO products and the oxidation state of the cobalt centre in EACH case.
