Description
An N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand supports a stable [Ni2H]+ core, formally dinickel(I). This diamagnetic cation complex features a bent hydride bridge and a Ni···Ni distance, 2.9926(5) Å, larger than two covalent radii. The cation displays weakly protic character, undergoing deprotonation by strong base to form the corresponding (NHC)nickel(0) dimer. Its reaction with aliphatic nitriles results in C–CN bond cleavage.
