manuscript describes the design, synthesis, characterization,
and reactivity studies of organometallic NiIII complexes
of general structure TpNiIII(R)(R1) (Tp = tris(pyrazolyl)borate).
With appropriate selection of the R and R1 ligands, the
complexes are stable at room temperature and can be characterized
by cyclic voltammetry, EPR spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography.
Upon heating, many of these NiIII compounds undergo C(sp2)–C(sp2) or C(sp3)–C(sp2) bond-forming reactions that are challenging at lower oxidation
states of nickel.
