Introduction
Historical Perspective and Early Developments 4
► The 2010s marked a turning point in the field, with seminal studies showcasing
the potential of high-valent nickel complexes for HAT reactions.
► One of the milestone contributions in the discovery of hydrogen atom transfer
(HAT) by high-valent nickel complexes can be attributed to the work of Sanford
and co-workers.

3. Redox Chemistry
► One of the most straightforward methods for preparing high-valent nickel complexes
is through oxidation reactions of lower-valent nickel species. This can be achieved
using various oxidizing agents, such as halogens, peroxides, or metal oxidants.
► Redox chemistry involving nickel complexes and external oxidants or reductants can
be employed to access high-valent nickel species. This approach often involves
reversible redox processes that allow for the generation and manipulation of different
oxidation states of nickel.
► For example, liang and coworkers designed and synthesized NiFeCu catalyst via sol-
gel method and demonstrated that the introduction of embedded Cu could regulate the
electron arrangement and effectively promote the formation of high-valent Ni sites 4.

► Ligand design plays a critical role in modulating the reactivity of high-valent nickel
complexes, influencing their stability, selectivity, and catalytic activity in various
chemical transformations.
► Here is a note highlighting the importance of ligand design and its effects on the
reactivity of high-valent nickel complexes:
► Salen Ligands
► Ligand Flexibility
► Ancillary Ligands

• The flexibility of ligands significantly impacts the reactivity of the nickel center. Different
ligand geometries can lead to distinct electronic structures and reactivity patterns.
• For example, ligands that allow for structural changes (such as bending or twisting) can
influence the activation of substrates and facilitate bond-breaking or bond-forming
processes7.
Ancillary Ligands 17
► Ancillary ligands are additional ligands in a coordination complex that are not
directly involved in substrate binding or catalysis. These ligands play a crucial
role in stabilizing high-valent species and influencing their reactivity.
► Bulky ancillary ligands hinder access to the metal center, preventing unwanted
side reactions. Chelating ancillary ligands form stable chelate rings, enhancing
the overall stability of the complex.
► By choosing specific ancillary ligands, researchers can fine-tune the selectivity
of high-valent nickel complexes in various transformations.
Ancillary Ligands 18
• McDonald and coworkers isolated and probed the reactivity of a high-valent nickel
chloride complex which can perform HAT oxidation of phenolic O-H bonds and
hydrocarbon C-H bonds13.

► Recently, the same group reported a new high-valent Ni−OCl intermediate supported
by the same macrocyclic tetradentate ligand during the reaction with NaOCl.
Interestingly, this species behaves as a strong oxidizing agent both toward alkanes and
alkenes, with reaction rates that surpass those previously reported for related
nickel−oxygen species.
► Moreover, corrected second-order rate constants values were found to correlate
linearly with the BDE values of the substrates providing strong evidence for
hydrogen-atom abstraction as the rate-determining step for the oxidation. 18
