Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and density functional theory (DFT) isotopic studies on cobalt-carbon species have resulted in the detection of linear CoC{sub 3}. Dual laser ablation of carbon and cobalt rods, followed by trapping the products in solid Ar at {approx}10 K, produced the CoC{sub 3} chain. FTIR measurements of {sup 13}C isotopic shifts are in good agreement with the predictions of DFT calculations using the B3LYP and BPW91 functionals and the 6-311+G(3df) basis set, confirming the assignment of the {nu}{sub 1}({sigma}) fundamental of linear CoC{sub 3} at 1918.2 cm{sup -1}.
