Abstract
The reaction of a nickel(II) chloride complex containing a tridentate β-diketiminato ligand with a picolyl group [2,6-iPr2 -C6 H3 NC(Me)CHC(Me)NH(CH2 py)]Ni(II)Cl (1)] with KSi(SiMe3 )3 conveniently afforded a nickel(I) radical with a T-shaped geometry (2). The compound's metalloradical nature was confirmed through electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies and its reaction with TEMPO, resulting in the formation of a highly unusual three-membered nickeloxaziridine complex (3). When reacted with disulfide and diselenide, the S-S and Se-Se bonds were cleaved, and a coupled product was formed through carbon atom of the pyridine-imine group. The nickel(I) radical activates dihydrogen at room temperature and atmospheric pressure to give the monomeric nickel hydride.

Marlier EE. Kappa what? Insights into the coordination modes of N 2P 2 ligands. Dalton Trans 2024; 53:1410-1420.

Abstract
While first synthesized more than three decades ago, complexes supported by N2P2 ligands have seen renewed interest due to the synthesis of new ligands, expansion of their reactivity, and catalytic applications. Possessing both soft phosphines and hard nitrogen donors, N2P2 ligands can accommodate various metal geometries and coordination modes thanks to their capability to act as bidentate, tridentate or tetradentate ligands. This short review will explore how metals bind to these ligands and also highlight the complexes' reactivity and catalytic abilities.
