Nitric oxide generation from nitrate at the cobalt center

Abstract Herein, we report the synthesis and reactivity of the cobalt(II) nitrate complex, ( acri PNP)Co(NO 3 ) ( 2 ). Exposure of 2 to both CO(g) or PPh 3 drives a deoxygenation pathway to afford the mononitrosyl nitrite cobalt species ( 4 ). To elucidate the electronic features...
