Revelations in dinitrogen activation and functionalization by metal complexes.

A monumental achievement for coordination chemistry that also re-addresses the role of molybdenum in the nitrogenase FeMo cofactor is the discovery of the catalytic reduction of dinitrogen at a well-defined molybdenum complex by protons and electrons (see picture).
