The large carbon footprint of the Haber–Bosch process, which provides ammonia for
fertilizers but also the feedstock for all nitrogenous commercial products, has fueled the …

The functionalization of coordinated dinitrogen to form nitrogen–element bonds en route to
nitrogen-containing molecules is a long-standing challenge in chemical synthesis. The …

Activation of dinitrogen plays an important role in daily anthropogenic life, and the processes
by which this fixation occurs have been a longstanding and significant research focus within …

The direct use of dinitrogen (N2) as a building block for the synthesis of NN-containing
organic compounds is of fundamental interest and practical importance but has remained a …

A highly efficient and versatile chemical cycle has been developed for the production of
isocyanates through the molecular fixation of N2, CO2 and R3ECl (E= C, Si, and Ge). Key …

Light-driven N2 cleavage into molecular nitrides is an attractive strategy for synthetic
nitrogen fixation. However, suitable platforms are rare. Furthermore, the development of …

We have re‐examined the reactivity of the manganese dinitrogen complex [Cp (CO) 2Mn
(N2)](1, Cp= η5‐cyclopentadienyl, C5H5) with phenylithium (PhLi). By combining …

Molecules with different resonance structures of similar importance, such as
heterocumulenes and mesoionics, are prominent in many applications of chemistry …

Transition-metal-catalyzed formation of silylamine from N2 (ie, dinitrogen reduction) is
achieved here using a tridentate phosphine/Mo system. Starting from the Mo (0) dinitrogen …

Two‐electron reductive carbonylation of the uranium (VI) nitride [U (TrenTIPS)(N)](2,
TrenTIPS= N (CH2CH2NSiiPr3) 3) with CO gave the uranium (IV) cyanate [U …
