Direct synthesis of cyanate anion from dinitrogen catalysed by molybdenum complexes bearing pincer-type ligand
Direct conversion of dinitrogen to organonitrogen compounds is a challenging goal in nitrogen fixation chemistry. Here, the authors report the catalytic formation of cyanate anion from dinitrogen under ambient conditions using a molybdenum complex.
