A functional model for the nickel‐containing CO‐dehydrogenase? Oxidative addition reactions of ethylene sulfide, propylene sulfide, and thietane with nickel complexes like 1 yield thianickelacycles. Formally analogous to the biosynthesis of acetyl coenzyme A, 2 undergoes an insertion reaction with CO followed by reductive elimination of the thiobutyrolactone 3 .
