a Proposed reaction mechanism. b EPR spectra of paramagnetic Ni(I) complex. c Free energy profile from nickellacyle. Geometry, vibrational frequency, and solvation energy were calculated using the B3LYP-D3 and LACVP**, and B3LYP-D3 and cc-pVTZ(-f)/LACV3P** were employed to determine single-point energy.
