Title: Concerted proton-electron transfer oxidation of phenols and hydrocarbons by a high-valent nickel complex

Journal Article · · Chemical Science
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1039/C9SC05565G · OSTI ID:1582476

A high-valent nickel(III) compound performs fast concerted proton–electron transfer on O–H and C–H bonds. Thermodynamic analysis suggests that the oxidizing power of the compound and the formation of a strong ligand O–H bond lead to high reactivity.
