Cobalt

Several websites have indicated that a specially designed organic molecule, combined with cobalt, can neutralize oxygen. Can anyone identify and describ for me this specially designed molecule?

The specially designed organic molecule you’re referring to is likely cobalt porphyrin. Cobalt porphyrins are a class of coordination compounds where cobalt is centrally coordinated within a porphyrin ligand. Porphyrins are organic molecules characterized by a large, planar ring structure that can chelate metal ions.
