The title compound, [Ni(C(5)H(9)N)(3)(CO)], was prepared from Ni(CO)(4) and a tenfold excess of tert-butyl isocyanide. It crystallizes with two symmetry-independent mol-ecules per asymmetric unit. The central Ni atom of each independent mol-ecule has a nearly perfect tetra-hedral coordination environment, comprising one carbon monoxide and three isocyanide ligands. The title compound is the first structurally characterized Ni(0) compound with a mixed CO/RNC coordination. ...[more]
