Synthesis and reactivity of titanium- and zirconium-dinitrogen complexes bearing anionic pyrrole-based PNP-type pincer ligands†
Abstract
Dinitrogen-bridged dititanium and dizirconium complexes bearing anionic pyrrole-based PNP-type pincer ligands are prepared and characterized by X-ray analysis. Their catalytic activity is investigated toward reduction of nitrogen gas into ammonia and hydrazine under mild reaction conditions.
