<i>tetrahedro</i>‐Tetraphosphorus as Monodentate Ligand in a Nickel(0) Complex

Abstract

An intact P4 molecule is coordinated as η1 ligand to Ni0 in complex (2). X-ray structure analysis reveals that the nickel atom is in an approximately tetrahedral environment of three phosphorus atoms of the additional ligand “np3” and one phosphorus atom of the P4 unit.
