N2 is fixed as NH3 industrially by the Haber–Bosch process under harsh conditions,
whereas biological nitrogen fixation is achieved under ambient conditions, which has …

Although vanadium is one of the key elements in nitrogen fixation, catalytic reduction of N 2
into NH 3, N 2 H 4, or silylamines using vanadium complexes has not been developed until …

London owes much of its size and power to its commanding position astride the Thames.

The inertness of the N2 molecule has given the chemical element N its German and French
names Stickstoff (suffocating matter) and Azote (from Greek “no life”). The N2 molecule is …

The first dinitrogen complex,[Ru (NH3) 5 (N2)] 2+, was identified in 1965 by Allen and
Senoff, 1 who were at-tempting to obtain [Ru (NH3) 6] 2+ using a method of preparation …

Four-electron reduction of dinitrogen has been achieved in the reaction of N2 with [{p-But-
calix [4]-(O) 4} 2Nb2 (μ-M) 2](M= Li, 3; M= Na, 4; M= K, 5), which contain a very reactive Nb …
