A deceptively simple proton abstraction from nickel-bound formate not only prepares the resulting CO22− unit for the release of CO in contact with electrophiles but opens up unique complex reaction schemes including reduction of nickel(II) to nickel(I) and coupling of CO2 units to give oxalate and mesoxalate. Mesoxalate formation from individual CO2 units is so far unprecedented. The complexes [LtBuNi(OCO-κ2O,C)]M3[N(SiMe3)2]2 (M=Li, Na, K), synthesized by deprotonation of a nickel formate complex [LtBuNiOOCH] with the corresponding amides M[N(SiMe3)2], feature a NiII−CO22− core surrounded by Lewis-acidic cations (M+) and the influence of the latter on the behavior and reactivity was studied. The results point to a decrease of CO2 activat...
