70. All efforts in locating the transition state connecting P-Int5 and P-Int6 failed. Nonetheless, this transformation is suggested to be feasible: the energy barrier of CO dissociation from Ni(0) center is calculated to be about +18 kcal/mol, and the thermodynamic stability of higher-valent metal carbonyl complex is relatively lower than that of the low-valent metal carbonyl complex: Crabtree, R. H. The Organometallic Chemistry of the Transition Metals, 4 th ed.; John Wiley & Sons, Inc.: Hoboken, NJ, 2005. In this context, the energy barrier of CO dissociation from Ni(II) center of P-Int5 was expected to be even lower.
