The production of ammonia (NH3) from molecular dinitrogen (N2) under mild conditions is one of the most attractive and challenging processes in chemistry. Here by means of density …
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 …

Nitrogen fixation is one of the most important issues but a long-standing challenge in chemistry. Here, we propose FeN3-embedded graphene as the catalyst for nitrogen fixation …
Density functional theory investigations of M3C2 transition metal carbides from the d2, d3, and d4 series suggest promising N2 capture behaviour, displaying spontaneous …
