The straightforward synthesis of the cationic, purely organometallic Ni(I) salt [Ni(cod)2](+)[Al(OR(F))4](-) was realized through a reaction between [Ni(cod)2] and Ag[Al(OR(F))4] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene). Crystal-structure analysis and EPR, XANES, and cyclic voltammetry studies confirmed the presence of a homoleptic Ni(I) olefin complex. Weak interactions between the metal center, the ligands, and the anion provide a good starting material for further cationic Ni(I) complexes. ...[more]
