Abstrakt: The formation and detailed spectroscopic characterization of the first biuret-containing monoanionic superoxido-Ni II intermediate [LNiO 2 ] - as the Li salt [2; L=MeN[C(=O)NAr) 2 ; Ar=2,6-iPr 2 C 6 H 3 )] is reported. It results from oxidation of the corresponding [Li(thf) 3 ] 2 [LNi II Br 2 ] complex M with excess H 2 O 2 in the presence of Et 3 N. The [LNiO 2 ] - core of 2 shows an unprecedented nucleophilic reactivity in the oxidative deformylation of aldehydes, in stark contrast to the electrophilic character of the previously reported neutral Nacnac-containing superoxido-Ni II complex 1, [L'NiO 2 ] (L'=CH(CMeNAr) 2 ). According to density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, the remarkably different behaviour of 1 versus 2 can be attributed to their different charges and a two-state reactivity, in which a doublet ground state and a nearby spin-polarized doublet excited-state both contribute in 1 but not in 2. The unexpected nucleophilicity of the superoxido-Ni II core of 2 suggests that such a reactivity may also play a role in catalytic cycles of Ni-containing oxygenases and oxidases.
