Abstract

The formation of catalytically active alkyl-Ni(i) complexes by comproportionation of diorgano-Ni(ii) precursors and Ni(0) species proceeds easily through triplet states by alkyl ligand exchange. The process involves inversion of the configuration at the carbon that is transferred.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-06-23:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 7.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 7 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 3.95.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 6 (Altmetric).
