Accessing perfluoroalkyl nickel(ii), (iii), and (iv) complexes bearing a readily attached [C4F8] ligand†
Abstract
The [C4F8] ligand was shown to support well-defined terpyridyl nickel complexes in the +2 and +3 oxidation states. Notably, a cyclic voltammetry study of the nickel(III) species indicates that an additional oxidation is accessible, providing a family of related fluoroalkyl nickel complexes spanning the +2 to +4 oxidation states.
