Abstract

This paper reviews the current array of complexes of relevance to achieving lanthanide mediated nitrogen fixation. A brief history of nitrogen fixation is described, including a limited discussion of successful transition metal facilitated nitrogen fixation systems. A detailed discussion of the numerous lanthanide-nitrogen species relevant to nitrogen fixation are discussed and are related to the Chatt cycle for nitrogen fixation.
Keywords: lanthanide; nitrogen reduction; nitrogen fixation; organolanthanide; imide; dinitrogen complexes; azobenzene reduction lanthanide; nitrogen reduction; nitrogen fixation; organolanthanide; imide; dinitrogen complexes; azobenzene reduction
