The degree of CO<sub>2</sub> activation can be tuned by incorporating a distinct electronic coordination environment at the nickel center. A mononuclear nickel carboxylate species (Ni-CO<sub>2</sub>, <b>3</b>) and a dinuclear nickel-iron carboxylate species (Ni-CO<sub>2</sub>-Fe, <b>5</b>) were prepared. The structure of <b>3</b> reveals a rare η<sup>1</sup>-κ<i>C</i> binding mode of CO<sub>2</sub>, while that of <b>5</b> shows bridging CO<sub>2</sub> binding (μ<sub>2</sub>-κ<i>C</i>:κ<sup>2</su ...[more]
