Abstract
Three molybdenum trihalogenido complexes supported by different PN3P pincer ligands were synthesized and investigated regarding their activity towards catalytic N2-to-NH3 conversion. The highest yields were obtained with the H-PN3PtBu ligand. The corresponding Mo(V)-nitrido complex also shows good catalytic activity. Experiments regarding the formation of the analogous Mo(IV)-nitrido complex lead to the conclusion that the mechanism of catalytic ammonia formation mediated by the title systems does not involve N-N cleavage of a dinuclear Mo-dinitrogen complex, but follows the classic Chatt cycle.
