PF3-containing transition metal nitrosyl complexes such as [Co(NO)(PF3)3] and [Fe(NO)2(PF3)2] were first prepared by Kruck and Lang (206, 207) by reduction of dimeric nitrosyl halide complexes with copper in the presence of PF3 (method A). 

Reaction of nitric oxide with high oxidation state metal halides can lead to reduction to low-valent nitrosyl compounds, with elimination of nitrosyl halide. This route has been used particularly for early transition metal compounds and some examples from molybdenum chemis-... 

Reductive nitrosylation also occurs on reaction of hydroxylamine with transition metal oxo- compounds (33-35) ... 

An important reaction of NO gas, catalyzed by transition metal surfaces, is reduction with hydrogen to give ammonia. As a consequence, a great deal of effort has been directed into studying the reduction of coordinated nitrosyl ligands.
