Nitrogen fixation, the six-electron/six-proton reduction of N2, to give NH3, is one of the most
challenging and important chemical transformations. Notwithstanding the barriers …

This third review in a series involving reactions of hydrosilanes and transition metal
complexes and characterization of the products covers the period 2009 thru 2013. After a …

Dipyrromethene ligand scaffolds were synthesized bearing large aryl (2, 4, 6-Ph3C6H2,
abbreviated Ar) or alkyl (t Bu, adamantyl) flanking groups to afford three new disubstituted …

Nitrene radical complexes are reactive intermediates with discrete spin density at the
nitrogen‐atom of the nitrene moiety. These species have become important intermediates …

Biological N2 fixation to NH3 may proceed at one or more Fe sites in the active-site cofactors
of nitrogenases. Modeling individual e–/H+ transfer steps of iron-ligated N2 in well-defined …

The electronic structure, spectroscopic features, and (catalytic) reactivity of complexes with
nitrogen‐centered radical ligands are described. Complexes with aminyl ([M (. NR2)]) …

Our currently limited understanding of the mechanism of biological dinitrogen fixation [1]–ie
the reduction of N2 to two equivalents of ammonia by addition of protons and electrons …

Pyrroles are structurally important heterocycles. However, the synthesis of polysubstituted
pyrroles is often challenging. Here, we report a multicomponent, Ti-catalysed formal [2+ 2+ …

Chemical transformations that result in either the formation or cleavage of carbon–
heteroatom bonds are among the most important processes in the chemical sciences …
