Reaction of NiCl2in THF with 2 equiv of Li(CPh3) at −25 °C results in formation of Ni(η3-CPh3)2(1) in moderate yield. Complex1was fully characterized, which included analysis by X-ray crystallography. In the solid state,1features an η3binding mode of its trityl ligands, resulting in a structure that is reminiscent of the archetypal Ni(II) organometallic, bis(η3-allyl)nickel. In addition, complex1has proved to be an excellent Ni(0) synthon. For example, reaction of1with excess CO resulted in formation of Ni(CO)4along with Gomberg’s dimer. Similarly, reaction of1with 4 equiv of PPh3resulted in formation of Ni(PPh3)4(2). Presumably, its ability to function as a Ni(0) source is derived from the relatively high stability of the trityl radical, which results in weak Ni–C bonds that are susceptible to homolytic cleavage. Finally, reaction of1with 2 equiv of PPh3, in an attempt to form a larger Ni cluster, resulted in formation of [Ni3(μ3-PPh)(μ-PPh2)2(PPh3)3] (3) in moderate yield. Its phosphide and phosphinidene ligands are derived from the formal reduction of the PPh3ligand.
