Abstract

The selective reduction of nitrite (NO₂^-) to nitric oxide (NO) is a fundamentally important chemical transformation related to environmental remediation of NO_x and mammalian blood flow. We report the synthesis and characterization of two nonheme Fe complexes, [Fe(LN ₄^Im)(MeCN)₂](BF₄)₂ (1^MeCN) and [Fe(LN₄^Im)(NO₂) ₂] (2), geared toward understanding the NO₂^- to NO conversion. Complex 2 represents the first structurally characterized Fe^II complex with two axial NO₂^- ligands that functions as a nitrite reduction catalyst.
