An insertion reaction of nitrosonium ion (NO+) into the metal−carbon bond of cyclometalated ruthenium(II) complexes is prepared with experimental evidence supporting a bimolecular direct NO+ insertion into the metal−carbon bond (i.e., M−R + NO+ → [M−N(═O)−R]+) but not an intramolecular migratory ins...
