Which is more reactive neon or cobalt?

Cobalt, definitely. Neon is one of the Noble/Inert Gases which make up the 18th family of the periodic table. The reason that they are given this name is because they are the least reactive group of elements in existence. This is because they have a perfect octet, meaning that they have 8 valence electrons, thus filling the outer orbitals. Valence electrons are the electrons that interact with other atoms whenever a chemical bond is formed. Since having a full set of 8 valence electrons is incredibly stable, the electrons really don't want to leave the nucleus of the atom they are orbiting, and therefore the atom will not react. Most chemical reactions occur as the atoms seek to achieve a perfect octet. Cobalt is a transition metal, and while they are not well known for being highly reactive, they are more reactive than any of the Noble Gases.

What compounds are in cobalt?

There are no compounds in Cobalt. It is completely impossible, because Cobalt is an element, and compounds are made up of elements. If this is what you meant to ask, then there a a lot of compounds with Cobalt in them. One example is Cobalt (III) Fluoride, chemical formula CoF3. Any compound with a "Co" (the "C" must be capitalized and the "o" must lowercase) in it contains Cobalt.
