The reversible transformations [(Bim)3Fe(魏2-O2N)][BF4] (3) [(Bim)3Fe(NO)(魏1-ONO)][BF4]2 (4) were demonstrated and characterized. Transformation of O,O-nitrito-containing complex 3 into [(Bim)3Fe(渭-O)(渭-OAc)Fe(Bim)3]3+ (5) along with the release of NO and H2O triggered by 1 equiv of AcOH implicates that nitrite-to-nitric oxide conversion occurs, in contrast to two protons needed to trigger nitrite reduction producing NO observed in the protonation of [FeII-nitro] complexes.
