Two forms of cobalt hydride exist under high pressure. From 4 to 45 GPa there is a face-centred cubic form with formula CoH. This can be decompressed at low temperatures to form a metastable compound at atmospheric pressure. Over 45 GPa a cobalt dihydride CoH2 also crystallises in a face-centred cubic form.[3]

Preparatiom

Cobalt hydride can prepared by reacting phenylmagnesium bromide and cobalt(II) chloride in hydrogen gas:
