Abstract:Ionic complexes [(κ4−PP3)P(OCH2PPh2)3NiX]BF4 (2 (X=Cl) and 3 (X=Br)) were formed when P(OCH2PPh2)3 ligand (1) was reacted with mixtures of salts NiX2/Ni(BF4)2 (X=Cl or Br). Single crystal X‐ray characterizations performed on complexes 2 and 3 established that metal centers are in pseudo‐trigonal bipyramidal ligand geometries formed by the phosphorus centers from coordinated 1 and the halide ligand. Reactions of 1 with other nickel(II) salts (acetate, nitrate or tetrafluoroborate) proceeded in 2 : 1 (ligand‐sal… Show more
