Reduction of Dinitrogen to Ammonia Catalyzed by Molybdenum Diamido Complexes

[Ar₂N₃]Mo(N)(O-t-Bu), which contains the conformationally rigid pyridine-based diamido ligand, [2,6-(ArNCH₂)₂NC₅H₃]²– (Ar = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl), can be prepared from H₂[Ar₂N₃], butyllithium, and (t-BuO)₃Mo(N). [Ar₂N₃]Mo(N)(O-t-Bu) serves as a catalyst or precursor for the catalytic reduction of m...
