Dinitrogen coordination chemistry: on the biomimetic borderlands.

چکیده
Biological nitrogen fixation by the nitrogenase enzymes has long been a touchstone for dinitrogen chemists.1,2 Both the enzymatic reduction and protonation of N2 mediated by these metalloenzymes (eq 1)3,4 and the industrial hydrogenation of N2 exemplified by the Haber-Bosch process (eq 2)5-7 employ transition metal-based catalysts to accelerate the thermodynamically feasible production of ammonia.

Iron–dinitrogen coordination chemistry: Dinitrogen activation and reactivity
Understanding the coordination of dinitrogen to iron is important for understanding biological nitrogen fixation aswell as for designing synthetic systems that are capable of reducing N2 to NH3 undermild conditions. This review discusses recent advances in iron–dinitrogen coordination complexes and describes the factors that contribute to the degree of activation of the coordinatedN2. The react...
متن کاملCASPT2 study of inverse sandwich-type dinuclear 3d transition metal complexes of ethylene and dinitrogen molecules: similarities and differences in geometry, electronic structure, and spin multiplicity.
The spin multiplicities and coordination structures of inverse sandwich-type complexes (ISTCs) of ethylene and dinitrogen molecules with 3d transition metal elements (Sc to Ni), (μ-C2H4)[M(AIP)]2 and (μ-N2)[M(AIP)]2 (AIPH = (Z)-1-amino-3-iminoprop-1-ene; M = Sc to Ni) were investigated by the CASPT2 method. In both ethylene and dinitrogen ISTCs of the early 3d transition metals (Sc to Cr), sand...
متن کاملHigh oxidation state coordination chemistry with triamidoamine tungsten and molybdenum complexes
In this lecture I will focus on some recent developments in the chemistry of high oxidation state dinitrogen complexes with an emphasis on recent results involving triamidoamine molybdenum complexes. The heterogeneous iron-catalyzed Haber-Bosch reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia at relatively high pressures (200-400 atm) and temperatures (350-650OC) was the f is t and most dramatic man-made cat...

The discovery and development of the chemistry of dinitrogen complexes are reviewed with particular reference to factors affecting their stabilities, and the implication of those factors in terms of electronic structure and energies is discussed, FIRST I must thank the organizers of this congress for their invitation to give a plenary lecture, and also I must explain my title. As you know, one ...
متن کاملSynthesis and coordination chemistry of topologically constrained azamacrocycles
Bridging superstructures added to small azamacrocycles, through the accompanying additional topological constraint, enhance the characteristic that makes azamacrocycles indispensable ligands for transition metal coordination including biomimetic chemistry: high complex stability. This review begins by briefly revisiting the coordination chemistry concepts leading to this advantage over less top...
