The optically active helical bis-cobaltocenium salt 6 is synthesized, as are two related monocobaltocenium salts, 19 and 30. The structure of 6 is analyzed by X-ray diffraction, which shows that the metals are separated by 8.49 A. Reducing 6 either electrochemically or with K(Hg) produces species that absorb near 920 nm, but the absorption is not an intervalence transition. It originates instead from isolated Co(II) centers. This is demonstrated by the reduction product of 19, which has only one cobalt, also absorbing at a similar wavelength (l max =957 nm). The optical and ESR spectra imply that the unpaired electron in monoreduced 6 is largely localized on cobalt and that direduced 6 is essentially a Co(II)Co(II) diradical
