Metal oxalates are an important class of organo metallic compounds employed in solid-state chemistry as precursors for synthesizing various bimetallic nanoparticles.  Cobalt and iron can be made into bimetallic nanoparticles by decomposition of oxalates under certain conditions.  The nature of compounds formed will be followed by using various characterization techniques.
