Co(acac)3 for Co3O4 by CVD
Co(III) acetylacetonate Co(acac) 3 was applied as MOCVD precursor for the growth of cubic spinel-type polycrystalline Co3O4 thin films on planar stainless steel substrates. The Co3O4 catalyst was reported to be active for the combustion of propane and ethanol [[i]]

Co(acac)3 for Co catalysts by ALE
Co(acac)3 was applied as precursor for the preparation by
atomic layer epitaxy (ALE). of SiO 2-supported Co catalysts (used for gas-phase toluene hydrogenation). [ 16].
Cobalt (III) tris(heptanedionate) Co(hd)3,
Cobalt (III) tris(dimethylheptanedionate) Co(dmhd)3
Tris(3,5-heptanedionato)cobalt(III) (Co(hd)3) and tris(dimethylheptanedionato)cobalt(III)
(Co(dmhd)3) have been synthesized, characterized, its thermal properties were compared with a series of other Co β-diketonates. Co(hd)3 had lower melting point and was suggested under suitable conditions to be a better precursor than conventional tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato
cobalt(III) (Co(thd)3). According to isothermal TGA study, Co(hd)3 was suggested to be better precursor at higher temperatures, while Co(dmhd)3 would be more efficient precursor at lower temperature. [[i]]

Co(acac)3 for Sr-Co-Fe perovskites by AACVD
Co(thd)3 was demonstrated to be a useful precursor for aerosol-assisted CVD of mixed-conducting ceramic films of Sr-Co-Fe perovskite phases [1026].
