Synthesis and reactivity of a nickel(ii) thioperoxide complex: demonstration of sulfide-mediated N₂O reduction.

ABSTRACT: The thiohyponitrite ([SNNO]^2-) complex, [K(18-crown-6)][L ^tBuNi^II(κ²-SNNO)] (L ^tBu = {(2,6-ⁱPr₂C₆H₃)NC( ^t Bu)}₂CH), extrudes N₂ under mild heating to yield [K(18-crown-6)][L ^tBuNi^II(η²-SO)] (1), along with minor products [K(18-crown-6)][L ^tBuNi^II(η²-OSSO)] (2) and [K(18-crown-6)][L ^tBuNi^II(η²-S₂)] (3). Subsequent reaction of 1 with carbon monoxide (CO) results in the formation of [K(18-crown-6)][L ^tBuNi^II(η²-SCO)] (4), [K(18-crown-6)][L
