Vitamin B12 is the only known essential biomolecule with a stable metal-carbon bond, that is, it is an organometallic compound. The cobalt can link to:

a methyl group - as in methylcobalamin

a 5'-deoxyadenosine at the the 5' positon - as in adenosylcobalamin (coenzyme B12

a cyanide group - as in Vitamin B12 - as supplied from drug companies

The particular link in the cobalamin has a profound effect upon the mechanism of the enyme reaction.

A methyl-nickel intermediate on acetyl-CoA synthase is also known, but only as an intermediate rather than a stable, isolable compound as the three cobalamins. Other organometals such as the methylmercury ion are highly toxic, it is interesting that there is an unfortunate connection between CH3Hg+ and methylcobalamin.
