Abstract

Abstract Hydrocarbon fuel compositions containing at least one divalent tetracoordinated cobalt compound represented by the structure ##STR1## wherein: R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently selected from hydrogen and C 1-6 alkyl, and R 4 is a branched C 3-6 alkyl wherein the branching is on either or both of the number 1 and 2 carbon atoms of said alkyl group.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 98 words
A hydrocarbon fuel composition comprising liquid hydrocarbons boiling in the range of about 20° C. to 400° C., and an amount to provide about 0.02 to 5 grams of cobalt metal per gallon of said hydrocarbon fuel composition of at least one divalent tetracoordinated cobalt compound represented by the structure ##STR6## wherein: R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently selected from hydrogen and C 1-6 alkyl, and R 4 is a branched C 3-6 alkyl wherein the branching is on either or both of the number 1 and 2 carbon atoms of said alkyl group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 98 words
A hydrocarbon fuel composition comprising liquid hydrocarbons boiling in the range of about 20° C. to 400° C., and an amount to provide about 0.02 to 5 grams of cobalt metal per gallon of said hydrocarbon fuel composition of at least one divalent tetracoordinated cobalt compound represented by the structure ##STR6## wherein: R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently selected from hydrogen and C 1-6 alkyl, and R 4 is a branched C 3-6 alkyl wherein the branching is on either or both of the number 1 and 2 carbon atoms of said alkyl group.
